"I've done many things to make walks exciting for patients. With one patient last year, I brought in my headphones and played some big band era music for her to listen to and this brought great joy to her face. I've also talked about football, movies, and gardening with my patients and, at times, I've had to do some research to be able to talk knowledgeably with them."

You sing, dance, tell stories, and you laugh. You do whatever you need to do to make your patients happy and healthy. Sometimes it's hard to get your patients on their feet and motivated to get up and move. Tell the interviewer how you get your patients motivated to go on walks. Tell the interviewer how you pass the time and make it exciting for the two of you.

"By taking the time to talk with my patients and getting to know their history and their interests, I love to talk with them while getting them the exercise and rehab that they need. For them, it helps put their mind in a great place and off of the pain and struggles they may be in at the time. And a bonus for myself is that I get to learn so many things from my patients while we are on walks."
