Client/Group progress summary	When I arrived Sharon was in her wheel chair, in a pleasant mood and telling me about a new friend she made. Another ALF friend stopped by to say hello. All very pleasant until she was escorted to the nurse station to speak to her daughter on the phone and when she returned she was agitated because her daughter would not allow her to re-gift a stuffed fox her daughter gifted her. Holding on to the fox appears to be causing Sharon some emotional distress. We discussed what the perfect outcome would be and she had someone in mind to gift it to. She then asked me to read her the story and got in bed.
Reflection and self-evaluation	I have been able to release anxiety just by showing up and being present. I feel working with end-of-life is teaching me more on how to live. These past few sessions have made me realize that every person needs someone to advocate on their behalf when they are unable to.
Final Client/Group Report	After seeing your client/group (for at least 4 sessions including interactive intake) Please remember practicum is a learning experience. You’ll learn more from sharing what’s accurate than from what might “look good”. Things you did well, not so well, problems and questions are all valid and useful tools to teach you. We can’t serve you to become the best clinician you can be if you don’t share your challenges and mistakes. Success is anything from which you learn. You can continue to add Session entries after submitting this Final Client/Group Report.
Plan for next session	Listen, observe and serve. Speak to supervisor if the fox continues to disturb Sharon's peace.
