I think that the thing that has pushed me to grow the most and what I ultimately am most proud of it being able to understand and complete the administrative tasks that come with operating a non-profit OT Telehealth clinic. Due to the number of non-traditional approaches that this clinic offers, I have had to get comfortable in quite a few areas that I had little to no experience in including writing grants, understanding the sustainability efforts of MMF, learning what administrative tasks come along with patient admission and evaluation, how to write a letter of medical necessity, and how to advocate for MMF within our local community. Everyday I have learned something new and a part of the success that has been proven is due to the fact that I remained curious and every-growing in my practice. I could not have done it without the support that Amy, Kendell, & Nicole have provided for me! - Aneta Glowacz OT/S, Midwestern University Class of 2024

One thing that I’m most proud of that I’ve accomplished during my time at MMF is learning how to be an advocate for the people that I serve and how to be a leader through running a nonprofit focused on increasing health equity. This capstone placement really pushed me to grow (with a just right challenge) as a student, businesswoman, and healthcare practitioner! I can’t begin to list all of the things that comprise of running a nonprofit but I am excited to say that Aneta and I have had the opportunity to accomplish many things such as updating the foundation’s mission and bylaws, partnering with many local businesses in Western NC to spread our cause and fundraising efforts, providing occupational therapy evaluations and writing grants/letters of medical necessity pro bono for over 20 people in 14 weeks, and so much more! I am so thankful for my time at MMF and I will always take what I have learned here into my future prospects as an occupational therapist! - Nicole Zhang, OT/S, Midwestern University Class of 2024
