Summary

I completed fieldwork in the acute care setting and pediatric outpatient clinic. In the pediatric clinic I practiced child led therapy with children with conditions such as Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, and Down Syndrome.

After graduating, I began working between the adult acute care setting and rehabilitation in the hospital.

In those positions I learned how to adapt in many situations, manage time, treat patients of different backgrounds, and work within an interdisciplinary team.
