My major is rehabilitation services. The rehabilitation services program prepares rehab coordinators who match the special needs of people with available resources. Rehabilitation specialists are trained to assess individual strengths and needs, and they are taught to understand the total impact of a disability upon the individual. I chose this field because I have been employed with a company called RMS Of Ohio for a little under two years. RMS stands for residential management services. We provide in home care services for those that are MR/DD, meaning mentally retarded or developmentally disabled. I enjoy my job now, but i'm not sure if I see my self continuing with this as a career, which is why I am considering switching my major. I simply chose it because of the influence of my current job. I figured with my work experience and education in school, once i graduate I should have no problem obtaining a higher level position. This is not something i'm so sure about now. So I am not sure what my future holds just yet as far as a career or living arrangements later down the line, however, I am still a freshman and taking basic entry level courses but I plan to decide fully on a major before fall quarter.
