Francis Shelter Newsletter – 14 May 2014

I visited the shelter today and wanted to give a brief summary of my visit.  After feeding the children, I had an one hour massage & relaxation exercise for every child. During this exercise, I unbind them from their bonds. Most of them really enjoyed it and I think it´s a good idea to do that after they had lunch, because a normal therapy is too much straightening after lunch.

After I had lunch with the staff, I positioned a child in a wheelchair and went out for a short walk with them.
Back at the shelter I started a 2 hour therapy session with the 5 kids whom I picked out for the therapy session. The main goals were head and trunk control for sitting, walk-training, muscle-strengthening and gripping exercises.

After visiting the shelter now the 3rd time during the week, I realized that it is most important to train the permanent volunteers and the part-time volunteers, because they are there most of the days. There are 5-7 people working at the shelter every week. Some of them joined the first training session, but that was it. This, in combination with the restriction of comfortable sleeping viagra tablets usa positions, as well affects pregnant women.

Even the volunteer-women, they have never visited the training. And I saw them now a few times feeding the children. There are 2 women who keep the kids nose closed while feeding to make them swallow. When I came to one of them and tried to talk to her, she pressed me the spoon in my hand and run away. Being a foreigner at the shelter with most people do not speak English adds another level of challenging to this task. I hope to get more collaboration from the permanent volunteers in the future.
