Students Explore Healthcare Career Programs
Health Occupation students have had an eventful semester. Students have attained their Healthcare BLS CPR Certifications and are also mastering vital signs skills. Health Occupations students had a great time visiting Waubonsee Community College healthcare campus as well as Aurora University, in which they had the opportunity to explore the healthcare career programs. There they were able to speak directly with staff and students. Throughout both campuses they enjoyed hands-on experiences pointing to the skills and knowledge needed in these future healthcare careers.
Students have also had the opportunity to speak with past alumni of IVVC Health Occupations and learn where they are in healthcare now. They will also continue to advance in learning much needed medical terminology needed in any healthcare career, with the opportunity to gain three college dual credits by the end of the semester.
