She interned at a Care Home dedicated to helping those who in old age had dementia, physical disabilities, and Alzheimer’s. Tiffany assisted with a variety of care tasks and activities with the residents, including but not limited to feeding, bathing, dancing, and Bingo. She performed her duties in a professional manner showing dignity and respect for the residents. Every day she faced new challenges. Every Monday Tiffany spent time studying at the University of London taking a class about British Life and Culture. Her classes allowed her the opportunity to meet students from all over the world as well as to explore sites such as Parliament, the Shakespeare Globe, Tower of London, churches and buildings that were important to British life. Over the course of eight weeks, Tiffany had the opportunity to make friends with her classmates and travel with them over the weekend to places like Windsor, Salisbury, Stonehenge, Bath and Dublin, Ireland.
