5th Time Volunteering


So this was my fifth time going to the clinic to volunteer. It was sort of different because my mentor who is the doctor was not in the day I went. There are three doctors that work there and they come in when my doctor doesn’t.  At first it was weird because I had got use to following my mentor around, but she not being there meant I had to follow the doctor that was there that day. One of the nurses introduced me to him and she explained to him why I was there and he was glad to help me. He asked me if I wanted to follow him around and I said yes. He would take time after we would see each patient to explain to me what he did and other things that was wrong with the patient I really appreciated that.

            After I followed the doctor around for a while the nurses asked me if I wanted to do the usual things I do which are do the patients height, weight, vision, hearing test and also their temperature. I did that for a while and then it was time for me to leave.

            Next time I go to the clinic I want to decide what I am going to be doing for my visual part of the project. The nurses there also said they would give me some ideas.
