Hey readers! 2. Weeks. Left. That is absolutely wild! These last 10 weeks have flown by, and I have learned so much. I am now at a full entry-level OT caseload (or close to it...

Hey readers! This semester I took an elective called School-Based Practice in Occupational Therapy. I have a level 2 fieldwork placement at a school this fall, and in general I wanted to learn more about pediatrics. Since approximately 20% of occupational therapists work in schools, I thought this would be a very valuable course to … Continue reading Occupational Therapy in Schools
