Save the Date for "Explore Camp" hosted in part by PLHS!
Last semester's Explore Camp was so popular, that we're bringing it back to allow more students to attend!
On April 24, local high school Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors who are curious about a career in healthcare will have the opportunity to "explore" the programs and services provided by PLHS.
The first half of the day will include tours of the PLHS campus along with extended visits to various departments to learn about patient treatment processes within that specialty. These patient case simulations will take place in Radiology, ER, Lab, Rehab Services, MSP, Home Health, CCU, and Surgical Services. Ideally, this experience will highlight healthcare careers these students may not have ever heard of before. The students will then go to Lake Area Technical College for lunch and additional education.
The goal of Explore Camp is to introduce various career opportunities to students in Watertown and surrounding communities that exist within the medical field and increase interest around the healthcare industry in general.
Registration will open on Friday, March 1st and will be limited to 60 participants. https://buff.ly/3vyTiaB
