MSU-B College of Technology opens its doors to healthcare exploration
"This was so cool!" "I would recommend this camp to my friends because it was Awesome!!" "It was Sweet!" "I really liked exploring lots of different health careers and the hands-on activities were really fun!" "I liked learning about things I didn't know about." "It was lots of fun. I only wish it was longer!" These were the comments from some of the participants at the first annual R.E.A.C.H. Camp for 7th and 8th graders held at the MSU-B College of Technology offered by the Eastern MT AHEC. The students had presentations from a family practice doctor, a paramedic, an EMT, a radiology technician, a hospital chaplain, a nurse and a surgical technician. They enjoyed learning why these folks love their jobs, how they trained for them and what they do on a day-to-day basis. The students participated in hands-on activities including: suturing bananas, taking temps and oxygen levels, examining a sheep's heart, having an EKG done on one of the participants, and examining medical ethics questions. It was a great day for participants and presenters alike!
