Here's an example:
"When I worked with an elderly man who was recovering from a hip injury, it was difficult to get him to go for walks or do any physical activity because he was so nervous about reinjuring himself. I was willing to work with him at his pace, taking baby steps towards more physical activity as we spent more time together."
This example shows that you are sensitive to the needs of your patients. It also demonstrates an understanding that everyone is different and that recovery happens more quickly for some and takes more time for others. Show that you are understanding and proactive to keep your patients motivated.
