Occupational therapy fieldwork students are doing amazing things! We are lucky to have such wonderful programs and students here in North Carolina. Noam Shemer is a second year OTS from UNC-CH completing her FWII in Durham Public Schools. In her first 6 out of 12 weeks, she prepared a “Process and Procedures for Evaluation at School” in English and Spanish for a school to distribute to support families’ expectations of in-person testing protocols (e.g. what check-in would look like, photos of the entrance, PPE). She also co-led a professional development regarding “Collaboration in OT School-Based OT practice” based on an article review for the Durham Public Schools 20+ occupational therapy team. When she’s not on Zoom leading sessions for students, you can find her asynchronous bitmoji classroom for continued student support. The future of OT is looking bright!
