Don't hold back: what is your DREAM JOB?
Physical Therapy is my dream job or working along the lines of something where I'm bettering people. I always knew I wanted to work in the medical field, but I can't do blood and I don't like the thought of seeing someone just slowly pass. So, I knew being a nurse wasn't for me. I've had multiple injuries in the past and a firm believer that Physical Therapy the best medicine their is.
Where do you see yourself in 10 years? What do you hope to have accomplished?
I've seen a lot in life being 28, doing 8 years in the military. I'm excited to see where I am in 10 years. Being that I've seen so much it would be hard to predict where I will be in 10 years. I know wherever I am I will excel at anything. I've been through so much, even if I stopped now it wouldn't even be considered a failure.
Based on what you have observed at your practicum site, what titles or levels do you hope to accomplish during your career? For example, being a clinic manager, owner of a practice/gym/business, etc.
I've always knew I wanted to open my own practice of Physical therapy. I love the idea Total Fitness has where they have a gym/therapy setting. The only difference I would make is; making the therapy side more secluded from the gym.
