Introduction

 Hello everyone, my name is Zeba Khan. I am an occupational therapist. I currently live in Illinois. I am married and live with my husband. We recently bought a new house. I am currently in the PP-OTD program. I work in an assisted living facility full-time. I really enjoy working with older adults and have learned a lot from my experience. I have also worked in a skilled nursing facility in the past and really enjoyed it. My favorite place to visit is Dubai. I recently went there and had an amazing time. The people are really nice and the food there is amazing. I am hoping to go back next year to visit again! Traveling with my friends and family has been an amazing experience for me and I hope I can continue to visit more places! 

One positive characteristic that makes me feel good about myself is that I am very empathetic. I think understanding where other people are coming from and helping people is what makes me really happy. I love spending time with other people, and that has helped me understand who I am as a person  as well. I am hoping that this course teaches me more about women's health so I can continue to help women of all ages in my field. I love working with others.

    Hi Zeba, I also enjoy working with older adults. I have ventured and practiced pediatric home-health for six months; however, I knew it wasn't a setting I saw myself growing as a therapist and decided to stick to inpatient rehabilitation. I'm excited to work and learn along side with you. Good luck!

    Hi Zeba, I love working with older adults as well, but I've never ventured into the SNF or assisted living settings. I would love to travel to Dubai one day. Excited to work with you this semester!

    Hi Zeba!
    Empathy is definitely a characteristic that must be possessed when working with any population of people.
    I look forward to learning alongside you this semester!

Blog review: Conventional Medicine in Children

   Blog review: Conventional Medicine in Children This blog was very interesting to me as I had never heard of Turner Syndrome before. It was very informative and was very specific in how it affects female children, specifically. This review had all the elements such as the description of what Turner syndrome is as well as detailed information about growth hormone therapy. It was interesting to learn that hormone therapy can have several negative side of effects and disadvantages for this population, one being the slipping of the capital femoral epiphysis. All of the heading in this blog were added appropriately and the blog was organized in a way that was easy to read and clear. I did not spot any grammatical errors and the paragraphs were cohesive. I thought it was great how this group added pictures of how a child with Turner syndrome may look, and unique characteristics that could set them apart. The videos were appropriate for the topic and they also had a description und...
