    Personal Statement

    I am pursuing this internship to learn more about geriatric patients and use the skills and

    knowledge I have gained in my health studies, leadership, and psychology courses to guide me

    throughout this experience. More specifically, I wanted to pursue a clinical experience to truly

    determine if a similar setting would be fitting for my future career.

    Learning goals

    1. As of the beginning of this week, my new top strength is Harmony. A learning goal I have

    related to this signature strength would be to work with each of the departments within

    the nursing centre to give the residents the best care/experience possible. These

    departments consist of nursing/CNAs, dietary, maintenance, etc. Learning how we can

    all work together will be helpful in any career I choose to pursue. This also ties into my
    5th value of teamwork. I am always looking for a way to work with others to improve

    upon all aspects of a job in the most efficient and effective manner possible.

    2. Another goal of mine is to strengthen my 3rd value of fairness to give each resident an

    equal opportunity to join in at activities. Although it is challenging for some residents to

    attend due to physical limitations, it is important for me to make sure that I tell a CNA

    what time they need to be ready for me to provide the help they need to get there.

    3. While I am doing my internship in the activities department of this facility, I am also

    hoping to gain knowledge in some of the other departments, such as rehabilitation and

    nursing. I have already shadowed an Occupational therapist and have learned a lot

    about residents' diets through serving in the dining room. I want to continue learning

    from the other departments, which also correlates to my new 5th strength, learner. I

    believe that this experience will help me strengthen this because every day I attend work

    I learn something new.
