We're back for another Fieldwork Friday!π
This week we are featuring senior OT student, Dawson Miletich, who completed his first Level II fieldwork placement through Saranac Central School District at Morrisonville Elementary School, working with students in Pre-K through 5th grade.
He was supervised by alum, Christina Zielinski '97, OTR/L. Dawson noted that Christina is a wealth of knowledge and provided thoughtful feedback for him throughout his placement.
Dawson was noted to have strong observation abilities within the variety of settings a student engages in a school building, enhancing his evaluations, documentation, and treatment sessions. Christina noted that his documentation was a notable strength-- consistently timely, clear, and concise. She also noted that he demonstrated a strong commitment to learning and professional growth, regularly taking the initiative to further develop his skills and refine his clinical practice.
Dawson will graduate with his B.S. in Occupational Science in the coming days, and then begin his last year of the OT program in August, graduating with his M.S. in Occupational Therapy in May 2027. We're proud of you, Dawson! ππ
