ABOUT THE PORTFOLIO
The Work Immersion Portfolio is the final assessment for graduating senior high school
students from the Work Immersion Program. This portfolio completely records students'
understanding of physical therapy and their direct encounters with various patients while learning
their skills and beliefs during workplace immersion. It includes evidence from both the
pre-immersion and immersion periods.

Pre-immersion activities such as workplace preparedness lectures, professional letter


writing, and job fair interviews provide students with a solid foundation of information and
communication skills. Learning the fundamentals of applying for a job or immersion and
compiling the necessary documentation to be accepted by the various organizations/companies
that these students desired for the Immersion Program.

During the immersion phase, students create extensive observation journals that
document daily tasks, interactions, and insights acquired about the working environment. They
also create a corporate profile that outlines the company's goals and ideology. Follow their
chosen schedules for the 1-week immersion program, which they must complete within the
10-hour immersion period. Learning and observing internship students and clinical instructors to
assist the patients with their therapy sessions. Finally, reflective journals allow students to
evaluate their progress by reflecting on challenges, takeaways, and how they used newly gained
abilities in preparation for college.

The Work Immersion Portfolio is evaluated using a portfolio assessment rubric and has
two aims. It enables students to demonstrate their professional progress and readiness for future
efforts while also giving educators vital insights regarding the performance of the Work
Immersion program. This complete record bridges the theoretical and practical gaps,
demonstrating the Work Immersion program's significance.

WORK IMMERSION

Description:
Work immersion is one of the requirements for graduation. A senior high school student
must complete work immersion in an industry that is directly related to the student's college
goals. Work immersion exposes and familiarizes students with a work-related environment
relevant to their field of expertise, enhancing their competency. These provide them with the
responsibilities and challenges of a job or further education following graduation.

Established Goals:
By the end of the semester, the students will be able to:
1. acquire relevant and practical industrial skills under the guidance of clinical
instructors and internship students
2. enhance their communication, interpersonal, and technical knowledge and skills
3. demonstrate appreciation of the importance and application of the principles and
theories.

Transfer:
Students, in the long run, are college- and career-ready and can proficiently demonstrate
workplace readiness and practical thinking skills that better equip them to face the demands of
higher education, employment, or any future endeavors they choose to pursue.

Enduring Understanding:
Students will comprehend that work immersion is a comprehensive approach that strives to
prepare students for the challenges and possibilities they will face in the real world, whether they
continue their education or enter the workforce immediately after senior high school.

Essential Questions:
1. What are the relevant concepts and skills necessary for further education and entry into
the workforce?
2. When can a student confirm that they are ready to meet the needs and challenges of
employment or higher education after graduation?

Values Integration: Workplace Professionalism, Accountability, Adaptability, Collaboration,


Ethical Work Behavior, and Cultural Sensitivity.

WORK PHILOSOPHY ESSAY
[FORTIN]

As a graduating student in senior high school, I witnessed my capabilities to work with


partners and groups on big projects, and my skills have improved over time. These skills have been
in me since I was in elementary school. I found myself thinking that I could lead a group
specifically that I am interested in. I would like to share my work philosophy, which I am related to:

Team-Focused. I developed this talent through my experiences as a leader in many projects


since elementary school. Working together allows us to achieve more than individual efforts since
we can share our abilities on a project. This has also been a highlight for me as a student-athlete for
many years; therefore, I needed to incorporate this experience into my academic success for
personal growth as a student.

Dedication. Since then, I've been dedicated to the projects I've created since I've determined
that putting work into these things yields excellent outcomes in the end. I learned to be dedicated
because I wanted to produce high-quality work that followed the project's guidelines. Being devoted
means strengthening my confidence and efforts for the projects and work that I need to complete.

Leadership-Oriented. For me, a leader is someone who supports you in achieving your goals
rather than someone who can lead them forward. These talents will continue to develop as I learn
more about being a leader, as we might come across a variety of individuals or communities and
learn how to lead alongside them.

Attention to detail. I am a perfectionist when it comes to the quality of work, which must be
unique and appealing to the teacher's preferences. This expertise may provide me with an advantage
as a quality critic, but it also has drawbacks in terms of reality compared to your expectations for
your work.

Hard Work. This talent will also stay with me since I want to show that I can perform better
and learn more outside of my comfort zone. To be this hard-working student, I need to be passionate
about my work and committed to it in order to stay motivated while enjoying the process.

As a whole, my experiences have turned me into a team-focused, devoted, and


leadership-oriented individual with a keen eye for detail and a strong work ethic. These abilities not
only help me succeed academically but also prepare me for the difficulties and possibilities in life. I
am consistent in my pursuit of personal and professional development, motivated by my love of
helping others in health care. These will also result in a better balance in my life, which will boost
my productivity and creativity as these skills develop.

REFLECTIVE JOURNALS

As I began my first day of work immersion at the SU-IRS free clinic, I expected to gain
practical experience in the field of healthcare. Little did I know that the experience would not only
broaden my understanding of therapeutic approaches but also call into question what I believed
about patient care and professional dedication. These experiences will help me make decisions about
whether Physical Therapy is a good fit for my interests and whether I can make it a lifelong
commitment as my pre-med course.

The clinic was welcomed by a neatly ordered facility filled with a variety of specialist
equipment. Each piece of tool is designed to help patients on their path to recovery. I was exposed to
a wide variety of patients, each dealing with their own set of issues.

From toddlers with OCD and Autism to stroke patients dealing with neurological limitations,
each meeting provided significant insights into the complexity of human resilience and
vulnerability. As I assisted in therapy sessions, I found myself drawn to a little child who was
struggling with motor control. Despite our best efforts, communication impediments created
substantial challenges, underscoring the significance of empathy and adaptation in patient care.
Seeing the progressive growth of a stroke survivor demonstrated the transforming impact of
physical therapy sessions. Their unwavering devotion to restoring function and relieving pain
demonstrated the significant influence of allied health professions.

The webinar, titled "Fixing Pain - Making Gains, Be a Physical Therapy Student," was
hosted by the internship students and provided vital insights into pursuing a physical therapy career.
The challenges of college life to sharing personal experiences of achievement and resilience. The
webinar provided a comprehensive overview of the profession's duties and advantages.

In there little clinic, I've met new people who are happy about their careers and are using this
as their starting point to become a doctor soon. I am grateful to the internship students and the
clinical instructors for teaching us about the power of human connection and healing. I hope that
these persons we met have a better life and continue to inspire and impact more others so that there
is hope in what lies ahead.

Finally, my immersion experience provided me with not just a deeper knowledge of the
difficulties of physical therapy, but also a stronger sense of purpose. As I seek a profession in
healthcare, I hope to face these obstacles with new knowledge and inspiration. While the road ahead
may be difficult, I am inspired by the dedication and commitment to serving humanity with passion
and honesty. This entire work immersion taught me that the key to overcoming these challenges is to
make helping others a lifelong aim.

WORK PHILOSOPHY ESSAY
[LOPEZ]

There are certain key components that I believe creates a great worker. When entering work
environments that are time-pressured and demand your utter-most attention. You would need
to at least have these qualities ready to prepare you for your future work.

1.) Time Management. Being able to manage your time speaks a lot of volume on how
organized you are as a person. If you know how to manage your time, you are most
likely able to achieve your goals at your desired timeframe. You’ll also be able to
appreciate your work-life balance. Your time management is what defines you as a
good worker.

2.) Respectfulness. If you respect yourself, others will tend to respect you as well. Being
respectful is not only important but it shows a strong bond between you and your
co-workers. To attain a work-friendly environment and relationship, you have to learn
how to respect others.

3.) Punctuality. If you have the quality of being able to manage your time, you’ll most
likely observe punctuality or the act of being early and on time. This is very
important to practice considering not all people will depend on you and your
availability.

I live by these three components and I hope you may too. I assure you that if you have one
of these three, if not all, you will become successful in your chosen field/profession.

Fourth Day

For our last day of Work Immersion, we were heading to Valencia! I was pretty
excited considering the clinic in Valencia offered CBR (Community-Based
Rehabilitation). Meaning, we were to go to the households of the patients and treat
them there. Upon reaching the clinic, we were greeted by the interns and
introduced to the interior works of their clinic. Midway our arrival, came a young
patient who had ADHD and OCD, who was really uneasy and had little to no
attention span at all. As we observed an intern assigned to the patient treating their
disorders, introducing the child with familiar colors, shapes, and toys. Hoping that
his current state would be treated and mitigated.

Lastly, we approached a patient’s house that was located very far from the
clinic. He suffered a stroke and needed to be attained to. We performed exercises to
regain his muscular ability. Also, made sure he followed his daily medicines and
house exercises.

REFLECTIVE JOURNALS

Back in 2022, when I first heard about the concept of “Immersion” from my older
cousin, she used to brag all the time about how they got to experience “work immersion” in
their time in Senior High. She always wished for me to experience it before going to college
since its demolition due to the pandemic. Then, I would always seek opportunities to get
myself immersed in courses that I like, such as open houses or conducting surveys on
students from other departments. Just to gain a little too much information on what to expect
when I graduate from Senior High School.

Fast forward, during my election days from the Student Council, I would propose events
like a “Course Tour” or “Career Talks” in hopes to help students better understand what
options they can apply for college. When it was brought to my attention that we would be
having Immersion for the second semester, I was brought to joy knowing what I could
possibly experience early in this stage of my life. So, I took every part of this opportunity
and placed it to my advantage. For the ones interested in Physical Therapy, we had the
option to choose from different clinics to immerse in. So, I immersed myself in all of them to
gain more knowledge and have this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

I would really like to imply that I have learned a lot in my time inside the Free PT Clinic
and Valencia Community Based Clinic, it gave me a sense of what to expect when I undergo
internship for the PT program here in Silliman. I got to meet new people, learn new
information, and most importantly, secure my decision for my career. I would like to express
my happiness in having this opportunity to better prepare myself for the future. Before
Immersion, I was having little doubts on what to take, but now I am more confident and
ready for what the future holds.

I would like to thank the Kuya’s and Ate’s for being passionate about their craft
and taking their time to share their knowledge and expertise to us (students). I would like to
express my gratitude to the Clinical Instructors for overseeing everything that went on when
we were immersed in their respective facilities. My deepest thanks goes to the IRS Dean, Dr.
Lily Bautista for giving us the opportunity to experience what PT may be like for us. Lastly,
to the Senior High School, for being with us in company with every endeavor that we dream
of.

WORK PHILOSOPHY ESSAY
[MAYAGMA]

Throughout my journey as a student, I have developed certain skills. Skills that


were meant to be used in class which I later realized could be applied to not only my
career in physical therapy but also life in general.

Discipline. It is the most important aspect to get good at as a person and in the
workplace is a must. Without discipline, simple tasks that take maybe a few minutes
can take an hour or even more. Distractions and temptations are everywhere, it is
your choice. I would like to quote a saying that goes “Discipline is the ultimate form
of self love, because it is sacrificing the time you have now for an even better time in
the future”. Not exactly word for word but you get the message.

Time management. This one goes hand in hand with discipline. Without time
management, a person's ability to be at their most efficient and in turn be more
productive is hindered. Time management is a very good start to learning discipline.
With time management, stress is reduced as you are not chasing deadlines. Your life
will also have balance as you will also have more time for family, friends, and
hobbies you may have.

Lastly, respect. Respect is what holds a workplace together. Without respect there
will be no synergy. Treating everyone with respect develops good work-relationships
which only does good for the productivity and wellbeing of the workplace. These
three are what I would say are the bare minimum in creating a productive, safe and
efficient workplace.

OBSERVATION NOTES

Last day

Our clinic for our last day was situated in Valencia which meant we had a little
road trip ahead of us. Upon getting there, since this was a new clinic for us, we
were then introduced and taken on a tour again. The first patient of the afternoon
was a kid who had autism and OCD. It was a sight to watch and what impressed
me the most was the patience and tolerance of the interns there who dealt with a
kid who would not listen or do as told at all for a solid hour.

After a short wait we were then taken to the house of the patient they were
treating this afternoon (home visit). The patient suffered from a stroke as well
which also affected half of his body but unlike the stroke patient from the first day,
what he had was spastic which means that instead of him being limp, his muscles
would contract. He was then taken through exercises and walking. The last day was
very memorable as the kuyas and ates were very entertaining to all of our questions
and the patient himself also shared a bit of his interest in plants.

REFLECTIVE JOURNALS
My first physical therapy immersion experience was an eye-opening one. While at first
it felt very observational, with a tour and inventory tasks, it laid the basis for what was to
come. Observing patient interactions and equipment use instilled a sense of professionalism
and the importance of a well-equipped facility.

Witnessing diverse cases, from a child to an athlete needing muscle release, showcased
the broad spectrum of physical therapy. Assisting with stretching, transfers, and gait training
provided a glimpse into the practical application of physical therapy. The informative
webinar by senior interns further solidified my interest. Learning about the various
specializations like sports PT and pediatrics broadened my perspective, while the potential
internship locations across the Philippines sparked a sense of adventure. Highlighting the
pros and cons of PT as a pre-med student offered valuable foresight, and the Japan exchange
program served as a powerful motivator to excel in my studies.

The Valencia CBR session cemented my fascination. Observing the immense patience
and techniques used with a child with autism and OCD emphasized the importance of
emotional intelligence and individualized care. The home visit for a stroke patient with
spasticity provided me with the variety of cases PTs could be handling, showcasing the
adaptability of physical therapy. The open and engaging environment with the interns and
patients created a lasting impression.

Overall, the immersion experience was more than just an introduction to physical
therapy. It was a journey of discovery and igniting my curiosity about the profession's depth
and potential impact. It highlighted the importance of patience, adaptability, and a passion
for helping others, qualities I believe I possess and am eager to cultivate further. The
experience has solidified my desire to pursue physical therapy and explore its diverse
possibilities.
