Tras un mes de estancia en un peque\u00f1o pueblo llamado Ciudad Dario, situado al Norte de Nicaragua queremos contarles algunas de las cosas que hemos estado haciendo y viviendo en estos d\u00edas.
\nLos primeros d\u00edas como os pod\u00e9is imaginar fueron muy movidos y nos cost\u00f3 un poco adaptarnos\u2026 pero finalmente llegamos a la sala de Terapia Ocupacional (foto). Pasamos dos semanas enteras evaluando y planificando la que ser\u00eda nuestra intervenci\u00f3n. (foto 1)
\nNos ha llamado mucho la atenci\u00f3n la inaccesibilidad de algunos caminos para llegar a las viviendas. Esto, a veces les dificulta mucho el poder llegar a centros en los que recibir tratamiento. Pero aun as\u00ed sacan la fuerza y encuentran las maneras de poder llegar a estos lugares. (foto 2)
\nPor ello dos d\u00edas por semana nos desplazamos a las comunidades, acompa\u00f1ando al fisioterapeuta y la psic\u00f3loga, para poder trabajar tambi\u00e9n con los ni\u00f1os y las ni\u00f1as con discapacidad que viven en la zona rural. (foto 3 y 4)
\nLos otros tres d\u00edas de la semana estamos en la sala de Terapia Ocupacional atendiendo a ni\u00f1os, ni\u00f1as j\u00f3venes y personas adultas con distintas discapacidades. En las tardes trabajamos en grupo y por las ma\u00f1anas trabajamos de forma individual. Nuestro objetivo con todas ellas es promover la m\u00e1xima autonom\u00eda posible en sus hogares y en su entorno m\u00e1s cercano.
\nCon los grupos trabajamos actividades m\u00e1s especificas aplicadas a la vida diaria, tanto actividades b\u00e1sicas como instrumentales. En las sesiones individuales trabajamos todas las habilidades y destrezas necesarias para posteriormente poder adquirir las actividades de la vida diaria (foto 5).
\nTenemos la suerte de contar con dos fisioterapeutas, Eduardo y Magal\u00ed, que nos est\u00e1n acompa\u00f1ando y apoyando desde el primer d\u00eda que llegamos. Adem\u00e1s trabajamos conjuntamente para poder desarrollar lo mejor posible nuestras intervenciones.<\/p>\n

Estamos muy agradecidas por todas las experiencias que estamos viviendo, la confianza de todas las familias y todos los aprendizajes que nos est\u00e1n brindando diariamente. \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After a month in Ciudad Dario, a town located in the North of Nicaragua, we would like to tell you few things that we have been doing and living in that period.<\/p>\n

The first days, as you can imagine, we were very busy and it took us time to be adapted into the new country… and, finally, we arrived at the Occupational Therapy clinic. We spent two weeks evaluating and planning how our intervention was going to be. (image 1)<\/p>\n

We have been surprised by the inaccessibility of some of the roads that we used to reach some houses. Sometimes they make very difficult for them to go to the town center where they can receive the proper treatment. But no obstacle is enough for them and they find strength to reach these places. (image 2)<\/p>\n

For this reason, twice a week we moved to the rural area, with the psychologist and the physiotherapist, to work with the children with disabilities who live there. (images 3 and 4)<\/p>\n

The other three days of the week we were in the Occupational Therapy clinic tending to children, young people and adults with different disabilities. In the afternoons we worked in groups and in the mornings we worked individually with the patients. Our goal with all of them was to promote the maximum autonomy at home and in their closest environment.<\/p>\n

When we work in groups, we practice specific activities applied to daily living, basic and instrumental activities. In the individual sessions we work all the skills and abilities necessary for an independent life. (image 5)<\/p>\n

We are glad to have two experienced physiotherapists, Eduardo and Magal\u00ed, who have been accompanying and supporting us since the first day we arrived. We also worked together to develop our interventions so we have the best results with our patients.<\/p>\n

We are so grateful of all the experiences we are living, grateful to all the trustworthy families that worked with us and grateful of all the knowledge that they gave us every day of that month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
