I have been in the healthcare industry for most of my life. One of the areas that have touched me the most is helping individuals with developmental disabilities. Individuals can be physically healthy, but their thought process can be challenging and their behavior can be like a kid. You have to realize that you are dealing with individuals who need help and that help is offered to them. The pandemic has created a lot of restrictions. Individuals cannot participate in most of the activities that they love, especially outdoor activities. We try to create other activities to help them out. It’s been tough, but we are doing our best to make sure that they stay safe and we stay safe. I see positive changes with my individual. He can put on his mask and stay with it for 10-15 minutes and that’s rewarding to me because he is able to comply to a certain extent during this COVID period.
