🩺 Exploring Futures in Healthcare 🏥

Eleven PHS juniors and seniors spent the school year gaining firsthand experience in the healthcare field through the EdAdvance Regional Healthcare Shadowing Program.

From nursing and emergency medicine to diagnostic imaging, dermatology, orthopedics, neurology, pharmacy, and physician associate studies, students had the opportunity to observe healthcare professionals in real-world settings while participating in career exploration and professional development activities.

Throughout the program, students not only learned about healthcare careers, they learned about themselves. Many discovered new interests, confirmed career goals, gained confidence, and developed a deeper appreciation for the compassion, teamwork, and communication that are essential to patient care.

Congratulations to Kennedy B, Gabriella B, Ryan G, Ava L, AJ L, Lylah M, Lincoln M, Zackry M, Payton P, Brinley P, and Maggie S on successfully completing this valuable experience!
