🌟 Career Exploration Day! 🌟
Twenty Altamont Community High School students had the incredible opportunity to tour Sarah Bush Lincoln Health Center this yesterday! 🏥✨
Students visited several departments, including:
✔️ Physical Therapy
✔️ Center for Healthy Living
✔️ Materials Management
✔️ Pharmacy
✔️ Respiratory Therapy
✔️ Lab
✔️ Diagnostic Imaging
Throughout the tour, students learned about the wide variety of careers within the healthcare system and the many benefits Sarah Bush Lincoln offers its employees. They were even offered job shadowing opportunities to further explore fields that interest them! 👩⚕️👨⚕️🔬
This experience was a wonderful way for students to gain insight into real-world professions and discover exciting pathways available to them after high school. 💙
A huge thank-you to Sarah Bush Lincoln Health Center for welcoming our students and helping them envision their future careers! 🌟
