Name: Maddie (Madz) Ferran
If you could write your own job title/description that best describes what you do, what would it be? At Morinville Physio Clinic it is my job to greet the clients at the door, and guide them to the room they will be in. As well as setting up our clients up with the different modalities that the physiotherapist has decided is best for the clients. Throughout the modality portion, I check in with them and answer any questions I can or direct their questions to their physiotherapist. I take the clients off the machine when their treatments are done and clean/disinfect the room after. As well as booking in the client for future appointments. Other tasks include cleaning all surfaces of the clinic and keeping on top of the laundry so there are always clean towels/pillowcases available.
Best part of my job? The best part has been the staff and the appreciation shown for my work.
Hobbies: Depends on the season. But my favourite activities outside of work include gaming with my partner, board/card games with friends, Magic! The Gathering (card game), drawing (paper and digital), colouring, biking (when my bike isn’t broken), walking my dog, taking my cat outside on her leash, dancing, downhill skiing, swimming (before I dyed my hair), rearranging/organizing my space, camping with friends and family, cuddling with my pets/partner watching movies/T.V. shows and probably more I can’t remember right now!
Favourite book or podcast? I have three favourite book series. Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas, An Ember In the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir, and The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken.
Cats or Dogs? Both!!! (I love all dogs, but I ADORE small dogs)
If you were a superhero, what superpower would you want? I would want to be able to shapeshift into any animal! Then I could fly, run really fast, swim underwater, and communicate with my pets!
