What if you had the opportunity to change the trajectory of a teenager's future? The truth is, you do! As a Registered Nurse for the past 14 years, last year I felt called to do just that. I made the decision to leave the bedside of mainly elderly patients to enter a classroom of 16-18 year olds who were enrolled in a Career and Technology class called Health Science. However, I was shocked to see that compared to area schools, we seem to lack necessary tools such as laptops (a staple in medicine) in the classroom. Health Science teaches anatomy and physiology, disease processes, legal and ethical issues in health care, medical terminology, communication and teamwork skills, as well as skills such as CPR, first aid, medical assistant and CNA skills. Our goal is to prepare future healthcare workers with the skills and attitudes necessary to be an outstanding employee upon graduation from secondary and post-secondary education. With new medical discoveries being made daily, it is impossible to keep up without having access. Therefore, I am asking you to consider donating towards obtaining Chromebooks for each of my students to use in class. My students and I appreciate each and every donation!
