Assessment
(TS) Interestingly enough, the nursing home has around 60 residents, but only three of them are men. (SD) Since they do not get many male volunteers, Barbara Millerick, my advisor there immediately brought me to talk to them. (CM) One was named Brian who was interesting, but shuddered when he talked. (CM) The others were Bill and Will, who where much easier to talk to than Brian. (SD) Out of these two Will was friendly and easy to talk to so I immediately formed a bond with him. (CM) Will is around 60 years old, which is rather young for a home like this, but cannot walk, has small speech problems, and has weak muscles. (CM) Even with this he is easy to talk to and is filled with stories. (SD) Although we were running out of time, I learned a few interesting things about Will. (CM) Before ending up in the home, Will worked at EB (Electric Boat). (CM) Also, Wills mom was apparently involved in the original process of founding Pine Point School. (CS) I had a great time today, and I am excited to come back next weak and learn more about Will’s interesting life.
