Coordination: Developmental Disabilities Association

In third year, I was sent to the Developmental Disabilities Association to educate the clients about oral health care. In a group of three students, we first conducted a verbal assessment of the clients’ needs. Subsequently, we conducted lessons in both a verbal and interactive manner, in order to garner more interest with the population. With this assignment, I have learned to collaborate with my colleagues as it was not always easy to think of ways to describe oral health terms simply. Also, we learned to delegate tasks to each individual so that the lesson would run more smoothly. Tasks included controlling the music (for ZUMBA), handing out information, leading the group and more.
