Fort Myers Occupational Therapy Assistant Program Director, Lea Clem, took her preclinical class on a field trip to the lobby to look at some of the toys that have been donated to Operation Homefront this week. They analyzed the skill set necessary to play with them. They also looked at the pediatric diagnoses that would gain therapeutic benefit from them, and the appropriate age/developmental stage of each toy. Students shared their thoughts and were reminded of all of the possibilities available to increase success in therapy.
My instructors believed in me. They were more than instructors, they tried to get to know you as a person and tried to understand your goals so they could push you towards them. Student services helped me find a job before I even graduated. Everyone was dedicated to my overall success.
