Canillá Group: Today was our last day at Las Maripositas clinic in Canillá and it was hard saying our good-bye's to Daryl's amazing team and the staff we built relationships with over the week. Most of us students got to go on home visits and it was very interesting comparing therapy practices in a home setting to therapy in a clinical setting. We also finished up care plans to leave for Jose, so he could continue making progress in therapy with the clients. Overall, we were really impressed by the team work demonstrated between the therapists and how they drew on each other's strengths to best meet the needs of the clients. We had a safe (but bumpy) ride back to Antigua and are excited to share experiences with the rest of the Xavier group!
Antigua Group: We made it! Today was our last day at Naomi's Home and we experienced some really tough goodbyes. Even though we were only there for two days, the children left an unforgettable impact on us. We were able to work with the girls at the home and create care plans for their caregivers to implement into their daily lives. Hopefully we left as much of an impact on the girls as they left on us. Afterwards, we got to experience a beautiful view, delicious nachos, and thirst quenching smoothies at a mountain-top restaurant in Antigua. At the end of the day, we met back up with the Canillá group. We were able to reflect on both of our experiences from the past three days and share some meaningful stories and lifelong memories. We are all looking forward to an exciting last day tomorrow. Stay tuned!
