Overall Reflection Overall, this activity has increased my understanding of the importance of food safety at home, and despite the fact that the interview
was conducted online, it was a fantastic experience that provided me with valuable exposure to proper communication and clinical
skills. And without a doubt, my translation skills and explanation skills also gained a lot of exposure. 

I believe that all the information gained from the interview will undoubtedly benefit me and serve as a great guide in the coming
years, particularly when it comes to approaching patients about personal matters.
