Mentoring/Service Hours 3

Date of Service: April 20, 2011            Time Spent: 2 Hours             Total Time: 6 hours

Action: - We continued helping the athlete who was helped yesterday with his ankle.
            - My mentor taught me how to wrap an injured achilles tendon.

Next Action and what: I next plan to work on April 25th and I plan to continue learning about the shoulder and start learning more about bones and ligaments in the hand.

How am I doing? We helped the player that was hurt yesterday by wrapping his ankle in ice and giving him stem therapy which gives a light tapping on the bone so that it doesn't swell. After that, Jo taught another intern I was working with and I how to wrap an injured achilles tendon. Chris, the other intern, and I practiced taping each other's ankle making sure the achilles didn't over stretch.
