Today, our program hosted the high school students of MedStart as they continued their exploration of healthcare careers. Our 1st year OT students set up three activities to help the MedStart students become familiar with the Occupational Therapy Career, including: a low-vision goggle scavenger hunt, an adult independence challenge, and a pediatric obstacle course. All of these activities not only demonstrated the variety of settings OTs can work in, but also their impact on an individual's independence and/or development as an occupational being.

Today, we shine a spotlight on Zac, a current student in the RMC OTD Class of 2027 who is sharing their perspective on the Program:
“My favorite aspect of the RMC OTD Program is that we gain a deeper understanding of our patients and practice through tailored assignments. If I had to pick a second favorite, it would be all of the hands-on experience that allows us to practice what we’ve learned in the classroom immediately.”

In a recent lab, our students participated in a variety of activities centered around pediatric rehabilitation. Students used a variety of tools and techniques to see how they can help children with disabilities or chronic illnesses achieve their maximum physical, mental, social, and educational potential. Some of these activities involved hammocks, arts & crafts, medicine balls, and other toy-like aids for children to practice strength, flexibility, and coordination.
