Patient Care Mental Health

Pegasus Riding Develops Abilities- Canberra, Australia

While living in Australia volunteered at Pegasus. There helped physically and or mentally disabled

children learn to ride and care for horses. It was a very full-filling experience. It combined my love of

horses and love of children enabling me to help children realize their dreams despite their disabilities

while still utilizing my skills in nursing.
