Day One

by Suhaila Usuludin ~ January 14th, 2008. Filed under: Archived, Fieldwork, Neurorehabilitation.

First day of clinicals was interesting with a variety of medical conditions. Haemorrhages, head injuries, cardiac conditions etc. The aim of this clinical placement was to synthesise theories learnt so as to really get the big picture of Occupational Therapy. And of course, appreciate it.

I managed to help out in treatment interventions as well as doing parts of the assessment. Expectations were also being laid out so as to set my goals of this clinicals straight. That’s a good start, I guess. Another good news was that Carolyn Unsworth is coming to the hospital next week. I’ll be attending some lectures and workshops on the early part of the week. Great! Another addition to my professional development section of my portfolio.

Alright! That’s all for today. Back to my readings :)
