We have made it back home safely, completed our summit week course, and graduated. It has been a busy time.
As a group...
We did 495 hours of collective service work (mas o menos)
4 hours of classes/patient care labs
Fit 4 patients with LN-4 hands and taught them to use the hands
Saw and established 32 peds PT programs for ICC
Saw and treated 20 patients in Batey Libertad
Saw and treated 10 patients in the ILAC clinics
Worked with numerous children at Conani
Worked with many adults at Hospicio
Planted a tree
Networked with students from PUCMM in clinic at Batey Libertad
What is difficult to measure what we will do with our experiences. Perhaps we will be more creative therapists, better advocates for our patients, see injustices more clearly in our own backyards, and realize the interconnectedness we have with each other on a global level. I look forward to see how our graduates will lead and influence in their new roles as physical therapists and physical therapist assistants. Thank you for a truly wonderful experience.
