Clarification...

A story that appeared in the September 17 issue of INSIDE stated that
Sandy Resnik of the Therapeutic Recreation program “got her start work-
ing at the Richmond Lion’s Manor working with older adults. She found
that therapeutic recreation wasn’t doing enough for people who needed
help.” The story should have said that Resnik did her first-year practicum at
Richmond Lion’s Manor. However, she became aware that people’s needs
weren't being met prior to that when she worked as a nurse’s aide in
another setting, where a therapeutic recreation program was not in place.
The philosophy of therapeutic recreation is to meet individual leisure
needs, and that’s why she entered the field. The story implied that
therapeutic recreation was not meeting people’s needs at the Richmond
Lion’s Manor; this is not the case, and we apologize for any misunder-
standing our error may have caused. @
