In my CF, I am seeing patients in my second week, and my supervisor and I are working together to choose the goals I am working on with patients and activities to match. Even starting with just a few observation sessions, I will jump in and learn as I go. A conflict can exist between what we&rsquo;d like to do versus how the therapy world actually works.
