Community Rotation
October 2021 - April 2022
For our Community Engaged Learning Rotation, we were partnered with the Arthritis Society, a national health charity fueled by donors and volunteers, with a mission to fight the fire of arthritis with the fire of research, advocacy, innovation, information, and support. Upon meeting Karen and Sharon and Dianne, our primary mentors who were licensed physio & occupational therapists,, we were given a few different tasks to complete within the timeframe. Throughout this rotation, we were able to develop our professional, research, and collaboration skills.
