Clinicals!

There are eight BYU-Idaho nursing students on the tour (not all of them are pictured below). We are doing clinicals in 4 different Palestinian hospitals. This past Sunday, we went to two different hospitals (we celebrate the Sabbath on Saturday and do clinicals on our free day, Sunday). Six of the students went to a hospital. Kaitlyn (to the left of me) and I went to Princess Basma, a developmental center. We shadowed speech therapists, occupational therapists, physical therapists, and recreational therapists. It was such a positive environment.  All the workers were so welcoming. The workers were so optimistic about their jobs and sacrificed a lot to get there. The nurse I shadowed traveled 2 hours to get to work!  It was so wonderful to interact with the people, especially the kids. One of the little boys smiled all day long! And another girl gave me high-five after high-five after high-five! So cute. They are spiritual giants in little bodies.
