    Joe,

    I really enjoyed your video! I suppose we all have the same mentality, we want to know more about reimbursement/funding and insurance companies. This upcoming class in the summer will definitely alleviate our anxiety about it. Also, I am sure you will be great at implementing interventions! We are about to have 24 weeks of practice, you will become an expert! Thank you for sharing, see you next semester!

Social Participation Frame of Reference

The Social Participation Frame of Reference theorizes how important emotion is to motivate and engage children in social participation. Children learn from others and so their relationship with their parents is going to provide the foundation for their emotional development. This frame of reference understands that children with disabilities can have a decreased ability to understand emotions, making it harder for them to engage in social activities. It is important due to this decreased ability, that the parents and children understand how important it is to engage in social participation. This frame of reference looks at seven different factors influencing social functioning and these include, temperament, adaptation, emotional regulation, family habits and routines, environmental supports, social participation in school, environment for peer interaction and peer interaction. In order to improve these factors, interventions are going to include both children and caregivers/peers doin...

The Interview Process

As we approach graduation, the pressure of getting a job will begin to build. Part of that pressure is the interview process. For me, I am always a nervous wreck anytime I have to interview, present a presentation or just talk in front of a crowd all together. Fortunately, I got the opportunity to practice these skills with a mock interview assignment. I found it to be very beneficial to get to practice these skills and get the chance to hear some potential questions that could be asked.  One thing I thought I did well was remain calm. I actually was not as nervous as I thought I would be and I am very happy about that. At the beginning of the interview I was thrown for a loop when a button fell off my jacket when I went to shake the interviewees hand. In my mind I was thinking of course this would happen to me but I am proud of myself for remaining calm and brushing it off. As I got the interviewees feedback, one thing I can do better in the future is talking about personal...

Aging and Sexual Health

Last Friday in our class centered around older adults, we had a guest lecturer who talked about the importance of sexual health and aging. She explained the numerous benefits sexual activity can have on the aging adult. Studies have shown that orgasms can relieve pain, reduce stress, improve sleep and boost the immune system. Overall any form of sexual activity can increase cognitive functioning. She then talked about why some older adults participate in a decreased amount of sexual activity and ways we can combat this. Two interventions are listed below: one in a group based setting and one client-based intervention. One intervention that comes to mind is a group intervention for a group of males with erectile dysfunction. This would involve mostly educating the clients on ways to improve sexual health as you get older. As we age we face many physical changes that affect our ability to perform sexually and one of these is erectile dysfunction. As our guest speaker mentioned there a...
