MCS HOSA (Future Healthcare Professionals) enjoyed a day of learning and observation on the ECU Health Campus. Students participated in the Brody Sciences Simulation Lab, observed real rehab practices, visited the Maynard Children's Hospital, toured the Ronald McDonald House, and ventured through the Brody Heart and Cancer Centers. MCS is learning by doing as students also received information about job shadowing opportunities at various ECU Health facilities.
Representatives from two Martin County agencies visited RHS to provide information regarding their respective careers and opportunities within their areas or work environments. Investigator M. Paniagua from the Martin County Sheriff's Office and Eric Manning, Production & Safety Manager at Martin Enterprises, provided students with valuable knowledge and real-world experiences. Students had questions answered and enjoyed learning about the intricacies of each employer.
