Assessment Journal – Third Entry
Today I met a very interesting woman while I was visiting residents at Academy Point. This woman owned two birds and had a passion for animals. She doted upon her parakeets and lovingly stroked and fed them. I was touched by the care and time she put into her pets. Also, when I was talking with her, I asked her if she had ever owned other pets besides her two birds, and her eyes immediately light up. She eagerly described the previous pets she had owned and told me a little story about every one. This woman’s eyes sparkled with enthusiasm and reflected the happy memories she was remembering when she spoke of her old pets. She seemed so excited to be sharing her experiences with someone else, and I was more than happy to listen
