So, been a little while since I’ve posted! Busy busy with work, school, and life. What’s new?
Anyway.
I finally set up an orientation at the retirement home rehabilitation center that a friend hooked me up with. Today was my second time meeting with the volunteer coordinator; she showed me around, made me a legit name tag (geeked!), registered me as a volunteer in their computer database, showed me how to assemble/lock a wheelchair, and more. Sounds like I will be shadowing an SLP/volunteering on Sundays for 2.5 hours a week (wish I could do more but, again, busy!).
It seems like a positive environment in which the residents and professionals are happy, so I’m pumped to get started!
