Great Minds: Interns instrumental to Krempels Center's success Katie MacKinnon When asked to reflect on her internship at Krempels Center, Cori Ianni, a doctoral student in occupational therapy at the MGH Institute of Health Professions, noted the unusual role interns play in in the program. “In most health care settings, practitioners and interns are handed a medical chart on each client that describes their diagnoses and medical histories. At Krempels Center, interns have the unique opportunity to witness members’ accounts of their brain injuries as well as the life impact through stories told in their own ‘voice.’” Krempels Center, a nonprofit dedicated to improving the lives of people living with brain injury, partners with universities to offer internships to undergraduate and graduate level students in allied health, human services, and other relevant areas of study. Interns have played a crucial role in the delivery of therapeutic groups to Krempels Center members for over 20 years. While the majority are students from the University of New Hampshire, Krempels Center has also hosted students from universities across the country who are seeking a unique, interdisciplinary learning opportunity.
