1. Summer Mentorship Hours
2. My mentor's name is Ken Smith and his contact number is 1(310)-904-9093.
3. Assuming everything goes according to plan, approximately how long would it take to complete a prostheses?
How can I make an interactive, entertaining activity out of this profession?
Would I consider doing this for my career?
How can prosthetics change peoples lives in more than just a physical aspect?
As a prosthetist, should you become close with patients like a family physician or help the patient and move on?
Does physical therapy play into the job in any way?
4. I feel that the most important thing I gained from my summer mentorship was an understanding on exactly how many different amputee patients you deal with on a weekly basis. It helped me to understand just how many people's lives you are changing within that week. It also gave me knowledge on how to approach different patients and talk to them about their disability.
5. My senior topic will be on the profession of prosthetics. As I stated in the previous blog post, I believe that it is a very noble profession and after my 25 summer mentorship hours my opinion has not wavered. My opinion has only been backed up by the dozens of prosthetic patients I have had the pleasure of meeting. Giving people their lives back is no small task, but the rewards of forever being the reason that a person can walk freely is completely satisfying and never gets old according to my mentor.
