GC 1/7

This week in GC I was in Physical Therapy. While this is a fairly interesting field in and of itself, most of the time we (the students) aren't allowed to do anything except watch or push wheelchairs. The physical and occupational therapists are nice and easy to talk to, but they know that we can't do anything to help, so they usually just request that we watch them work. Originally learning about the exercises that they do is interesting, but now that I've seen these exercises multiple times, I've just started asking the physical therapists about what kind of schooling an testing they needed to take. I've also started talking to residents about their experiences in GC and in life. Learning about people is fun and interesting because it helps to develop better people skills, but I'd like to focus on the medicine more in the future.

  1. Thanks for the honesty and I understand. Sometimes the learning can be slow and will not come years from now.
