CHETNA JETHA
I have always had a passion for children, however I was unaware I would be able to merge my passion with my career. After Matriculating in Canada, I moved to South Africa and spent 6 months job shadowing various professionals in order to determine which path I would follow. This is when I stumbled upon the wonderful field of occupational therapy. <br /> <br /> I qualified as an occupational therapist from the University of KwaZulu Natal in 2012 and went on to complete my community service year at Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital. I am committed and enthusiastic about my chosen career. During my years of experience, I have had the pleasure of working with dynamic and motivated multidisciplinary teams with diverse expertise. <br /> <br /> Along my journey at Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital in Johannesburg and The Browns' School in Durban, I discovered a special interest for early childhood intervention and paediatric neurology. I have been afforded the opportunity to attend numerous workshops and courses by local and international presenters, the most recent of which include the 8 Week Paediatric Course on the Bobath/NDT Concept and Prechtl's Method on the Qualitative Assessment of General Movements. I feel that my career so far has been one of tremendous growth, both in a personal and professional capacity, yet I believe there is still so much for me to learn.<br /> <br /> After hours I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, meeting new people and experimenting in the kitchen. <br />
