I would like to thank you for giving me the opportunity to be placed at your clinic as a student of Occupational Therapist Assistant and Physiotherapist Assistant on the Rehab unit. I believe that the services you have to offer are incredibly unremarkable such acute care and specialized programs. I am looking forward to expanding my knowledge about Trillium Health Care Hospital and what it has to offer.

Some people afraid of work and talk with the elderly people, but I am not kind of that problem.

It took me a long time to make this decision, I do not choose this major because of my family wants me to do. I research this program through the website, watch the
Ever since my sophomore year of high school, I knew the medical field was the right choice for me. It wasn’t just the ability to have vast amounts of knowledge about the human body, but to be able to help people. Helping those who need it is a very rewarding idea to me.

The hustle and bustle of a hospital has been a part of my life since I was little. My step-father was in and out of the hospital constantly with unknown illnesses which eventually took his life earlier this year. Since I could remember, I was in awe, watching doctors and nurses. I have always admired the hospital staff for all that they do and I have known for so long that the medical field was for me. Being a Physician's Assistant is a rewarding and difficult job, and I believe I have the drive and personality to succeed in this career.
I am interested in your New Graduate Nurse Residency Program.

I choose to be an RN because I love learning about the anatomy and physiology of the human body and working with people.

Based on your experiences in practice, identify a vulnerable client/patient or group, reflect on what contributed to this individual's/group's vulnerability and discuss how this was addressed in practice.

1. INTRODUCTION T. S. Eliot (1943) once wrote, “We had the experience but missed the meaning”.
