On Thursday, July 27,2017 I attended clinical at the Golden Valley Medical Clinic in Clinton. I learned several tasks that take place in a clinic along with the many roles that are played at one desk. As an LPN in the clinic, there are many roles that take place.

The Clinic currently accepts any patients ranging from infants through the elderly.

From a previous visit and learning more about the city from a friend growing up there, I have developed a strong interest in Philadelphia. Aside from the unique arts, food, and culture, Temple University Hospital’s location offers opportunities that best suit my career goals. Since I have an interest in pediatrics, the notable primary care shortage in Pennsylvania, and especially in Philadelphia, will allow me to help a large amount of people. As a large urban city, Philadelphia has many parallels to the familiar Los Angeles area I have grown up.
