Nan with the Plan

This project felt the most “OT” out of all the projects in school so far.   Personally, I execute very well but sometimes struggle coming up with creative ideas, so this project was challenging for me.   Even though it was difficult, it was very rewarding.   Having a real client in mind while designing an intervention made it more meaningful.   The most significant thing I learned during this project was how important it is to stay client-centered.   While I was brain-storming, I would come up with an idea; then I had to ask myself if Craig would benefit from this intervention and would he stay motivated while doing it.   If the answer was no, I continued thinking.   Being client-centered may require more effort but will have bigger and better results because of that hard work.   I can see how busy practitioners can lose sight of this essential pillar of OT, but it is crucial to keep it in the forefront of therapy.   ...
