Provided much evidence-based knowledge exchange with the EI research team regarding the outcome measures and classification systems for CP. Involved in the manuscript development for the GMFM and WeeFIM components of the study and collaborating on the COPM manuscript.<\\/p><p>I supervised and trained a PT student from UBC for 5 weeks for a pediatric PT placement at the EI Center with children followed by Renuga and Bama.

Much knowledge exchange took place which reinforced the teaching I provided during my training program.

Visited the orthotic dept. with 3 MTU PTs to discuss required AFO modifications to the ready-made AFOs provided at ASSA. Trained Shajitha, Nisha and Muthu in using the GMAE for the GMFM-66.<\\/p><p>I have had a few meetings with Navamani from the above-6 VBR Programme to discuss the revision of the assessment (General and specific) for these children. Discussion regarding the choice of outcome measure to use, questionnaires to evaluate impairments and function, identify goals, measure child participation.

My time here has taught me the importance of body language and how a simple smile can go a long way. Although I\\u2019ve been frustrated at times due to a severe language barrier, I quickly discovered that here at ASSA and in India as a whole, the most important messages can be said without a single word, as India is a culture of the heart! I\\u2019ve been moved to tears numerous times at the sense of ownership both staff and clients take in helping one another. There is also a sense of camaraderie here between clients that is touching to witness and be a part of. These young and older men have experienced a traumatic event that has forever altered the course of their lives, however instead of wallowing they are trying to not only work on their own personal recovery, but cheering each other along by celebrating the small successes! To them every gain is worth acknowledging. Even more, when seeing their friends struggle due to a physical limitation, they are always there to help in any way they can can despite their shortcomings. On the unit, one man\\u2019s strengths can compensate for another man\\u2019s weaknesses and make all the difference! I\\u2019ve worked in many countries with access to all the necessary resources to promote a speedy recovery, but it is in India where not everything is readily available that I\\u2019ve learned the most valuable techniques and lessons as an OT.

At Sangam, I learned that there are no barriers to developing close and meaningful relationships with others, regardless of culture, context or language. I learned that it is possible for one person or one organization to truly impact the lives of thousands of people. Sangam allowed me to not only utilize my skills as a physiotherapist but to also explore my interest in learning about the administrative side of running a successful NGO. I also enjoyed every minute I had to spend with the children on campus. They were truly an inspiration. Despite the physical challenges many of them face on a daily basis, I never heard a single complaint or saw a single frown, just an endless stream of warm smiles. There is definitely something unique about Sangam, and I feel very blessed to have become a part of the family there.
