Rcs Capstone Reflection
My RCS Capstone Experience challenged me by forcing me to speak infront of a large group of people, who have had more years of experience than I have. Also a physical challenge for I had to develope my upper body strength for the training I had to endure. Both of these things pushed me out of my confort zone, but in the long run I know they will be valuable skills for the future. I have been a volunteer at Jacobs Creek Fire Department for three years, but even with these years there is still always room for improvement. This topic is important to me because the people in my station are like family to me. I know even on my worst of days that they will always have your back. In addition being in the fire department brought me and my dad closer,

    Also, that is why the training and guidelines/procedures are so strict. Firefighter training and academy mimics how the military trains our soldiers. How tough and strict they are about every little detail and especially safety. The training physically and mentally is one of the most challenging things you will have to endure. From the physical work out every day to the mental studies you have to do and the practices you have to learn to keep with the times. Especially, on your probationary period, this is a big factor, you have to be the one doing anything and everything perfectly. However, once you become a firefighter and off probationary, you still don’t stop evolving. Although, there is nothing more rewarding, from the great pay, benefits and retirement plan. Also, knowing that you can help the community and civilians around you, knowing that you can protect them and help them if needed. Firefighting g is a full-time job even when you’re off the clock. You are always being looked at and you always might need to step in and help someone. This is the main reason why this is a challenging job, it never…

    I spoke with Cuffee about your class and I thank you for your concern about him. I will be checking on him periodically, and monitoring his progress by checking in with you. However, at this moment in time, we cannot adjust his schedule because that would be removing him from his least restrictive environment because History Co-Lab is not listed as one of his special education services. I suggest that we give him a trial run, maybe until the first unit test or maybe the first interim which is October 4th, and we can see how he is doing, and should we need to schedule a meeting to make this change necessary then we can do that. I will also check in with his parents and let them know your concerns, and maybe they can step in as reinforcement.…

    There was always a desire in me to opt for a profession in which I could contribute to the society and help the people in need. What better way to do this than to be a paramedic who tirelessly works to aid people in distress.

    At first I was very nervous to apply as a volunteer and had doubts about being hired. After a long process of applications, interviews, and trainings, I was assigned to work at 6-CD on Geriatric floor. While I was volunteering there I met with different people, nurses, doctors, and pharmacy technicians. Seeing the pace of work they work in made me realize how important it is to work in healthcare. For me, the most significant issue was to get the used to patients who have passed away. I have seen a situation where a nurse and a doctor telling a family member that their father has passed away. At first I hesitated and asked myself if I am brave enough to do the same in future. As I volunteered there I realized I got used to everything, I was able to handle…
