Calvin’s Corner | A Day in the Life
I know I’m basically reposting the blogs I post on the USC Chan Student Blog page, but I just haven’t had the time to be posting about other things :( I want to at least get something up though! Here’s a day in the life vlog (zoom edition) that I filmed around 2 weeks ago!
End of OT Month
This was posted today on USC Chan’s social media and honestly, reading this post and seeing the clinicians that represent the professions of physical therapy and occupational therapy made me really emotional. Just the way that Dr. John Margetis worded this short, but impactful statement really hit me hard and made me realize even more why I love occupational therapy.
“With everyone entering the room to ‘do something’ to our patients, occupational therapy sessions focus more on giving our patients some control over their time and bringing a human touch to the cold, sterile environment of the intensive care units.”
I am so proud to be part of a profession that lets people feel involved in their treatment and that reminds them that they are the source of healing; we are mainly here to facilitate and collaborate with them. During this tremendously uncertain and scary time, I’m grateful that there are therapists out there on the front-lines, providing care to those affected by COVID-19, but also adding that “human touch” so that they can have a sense of hope and a sense of warmth as they’re going through this dark journey. Thank you to USC Chan for sharing this empowering statement. Thank you to everyone on the front-lines, for serving the community and giving back every ounce of effort that they can. Thank you everyone who is staying home and really enforcing the stay-at-home guidelines. Stay safe and be well!
USC Mrs. T.H. Chan Division of Occupational Science and Occupational Therapy OT 518: Quantitative Research - Poster Presentation
The Effects of Bariatric Care on Weight Management in Obese Adults I’m so proud of all of us! I just wanted to say I think we had such an awesome group and I'm so happy that everyone was more than happy to pull their weight and put in work to make our project great! Special thanks to Kaori (Lily) Ito, OTR/L, Doctoral Candidate, for teaching us everything we needed to know for this presentation!
