PRESENTATION
APPLICATION
This project included writing a SOAP note, a standard of documentation in healthcare professions. I was able to observe and document sessions with a personal trainer who was working with a client who had type 2 diabetes. A drastic change from working with athletes, it gave me an appreciation for professionals working with these populations as it can be challenging to navigate. The underlying science of these conditions is a critical aspect in knowing how to perform safe and effective exercise, but being able to coach and motivate clients who deem exercise as close to impossible is extremely rewarding.
