🏥 Eyes Wide Open to New Possibilities: Health Careers Tour Aurora Medical Center! 🩺✨
In May, our Health Careers students took an incredible, behind-the-scenes trip to the Aurora Medical Center in Burlington to see the world of healthcare in real life! 🛡️💼
The hospital’s leadership team kicked off the day with an insightful overview of the many different career pathways available within a medical facility. From there, our students got an exclusive, top-to-bottom tour of the building, making stops in:
🧼 Sterile Processing
🥼 The Operating Room (OR) & Pre-/Post-Op Areas
🚨 The Emergency Room (ER), where they learned about respiratory therapy and medical laboratory science.
"As a teacher, my favorite part was watching eyes open wide with all of the different career possibilities!"
We are incredibly grateful to the team at Aurora Medical Center for opening their doors, sharing their expertise, and inspiring the next generation of healthcare professionals. Our Trojans came home excited, inspired, and ready for the future! 🧡🖤
