  Emerge: A Child’s Place is where I completed my level 2B fieldwork placement. I was at Emerge for 12 weeks where I had the opportunities to evaluate, re-evaluate, plan and implement full treatment sessions for the entire caseload, discharge, and document. I worked alongside five other occupational therapists where I got to learn different styles of treatments and observe multiple therapeutic interventions. At Emerge I was introduced to the Interactive Metronome and Wilbarger Brushing Protocol. While at Emerge I completed a student project where I used multiple resources to complete an activities list for reflex integration. Show less
