During the last day with my mentor, there were 2 students who were there with me. These university students were aspiring to be real physical or occupational therapists and were going to school to do so. A requirement to get your license is that you have to volunteer in multiple clinics for a # of hours in each one. Both of them were white girls that both had some experiences with horses, but I think these factors are a lot more likely because we were in Norco. Both of them didn't know if they would go into pediatric therapy, but they did enjoy their time there. They specifically enjoyed the ranch and working with the horses. How the workers feel and act in the workplace has a big effect on how the patient and the family feel and respond to what's happening in front of them.
