Comments
I was kind of upset because my
patient from last week had
booked an appointment and I
had though up the perfect
treatment all week but she
didnt show up.
I dont really remember this guy
at all except for his name his
and treatment.
Kind of a quiet guy. Had trouble
getting the Information I
needed out of him.

Same patient again didnt show

up
I feel much more confident in
moving around a persons joint
rhythmically or to assess.
Nice lady, talked a little bit
about our programs

General wellness

prescribed a variety of neck stretches.

Patient suffers from muscle dystrophy. Patient
has been coming to clinic all semester. I worked
on his back to reduce soreness because he tries
to compensate for his legs using his upper body. I
worked on his full back. I used effleurage,
petrissage, muscle stripping and a myofascial
stretch techniques to low back. I used heat on
both upper and lower back.
She had a neck complaint. So I had her do AROM
of her neck. I used effleurage, petrissage, muscle
stripping, myofascial techniques on neck and
upper back. No modalities were used. I assigned
stretches for neck. The same one I gave the other
lady.

Really great guy, I hope to work

with him again. Talked mostly
about sports and music.

This patient talked allot, which

made me realize I need to take
notes. To filter out some of the
less necessary stuff.

Clinic Instructor: Melissa Mitchell

Description of Experience
I performed a postural assessment on a young lady with head
forward posture. My clinical instructor observed me. It was low
pressure and I am sure I did a good job however I didnt record
anything for myself.

Performance Indicator Achieved

2.1.g (1-5);
1.1.b (1-4)

Three (3) Performance Indicators I have not achieved are

3.2.e.10 (3)
2.1.q (5)
2.1.n (4)

Incorporate cold pack treatments into a comprehensive treatment...

Demonstrate the selected assessment.
(Perform appropriate special...
Demonstrate joint play
assessment base upon patient
history and...

My plan for achieving these three performance indicators is

The steps I will take to achieve these performance indicators are to first find a person I can appropriately administer an icepack too. Next I will
perform a SOT in front of my clinical instructor perfectly. Then because I recently reviewed joint play when studying with Brittney I can start
incorporating it into my treatment and assessments.
I am SATISFIED with my progress in this Internship so far

MSTH210: On Campus Internship 1

I am progressively growing more confident in clinic and I am focusing harder on the assessment portion of treatment.
I am NOT SATISFIED with my progress in this Internship so far
Due to poor note taking I failed to complete competencies and didnt mange to do a perfect learning log.
Additional Comments:
I would be interested in talking about my progress in this class.
