Without which, the data gathered were all hard works from the group to be able to come up with a partial diagnosis that may help in taking immediate actions to the severe problems of the community. The raging heat of the sun and the strong rain pour were all worth it because nothing can beat something that is worth the experience.
We would like to acknowledge our dear parents for the undying support especially financially and emotionally. Without them, our Micro-teaching would not be possible. And also, to our motherly Clinical Instructor, Mrs. Ivy Go who has been with us throughout the rotation to guide and help us meet our objectives for the whole duration of the rotation.
Last but not the least, the Almighty Father who gifted us with knowledge to perform thorough assessments and the confidence in interacting with people we barely know. All our deep gratitude to all of them!
