First Day at my New Internship

     On Wednesday, January 30th, I started a new internship at Texas Children's Hospital, where I am shadowing Dr. Qureshi, a pediatric cardiologist. This was very exciting for me because I have wanted to get an internship in the medical center for a long time. I was filling out paperwork for the second half of last semester, and this year, I finally got to start. I spent my two hours on Wednesday morning getting my badge with access to the cardiology wing, learning how to access and wear a pair of scrubs, meeting a lot of people, and observing a procedure. It was all very exciting, and a great way to start my new internship.
    I think that this experience connects to learning outcome 2: Demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken, developing new skills in the process. I definitely developed patience while filling out paperwork and waiting to start my internship. I think that this connects to Service because it is a volunteer internship.
