In case you are unaware at West Craven High School we have a program known as HOSA (Health Occupation Students of America.) This program is for students in high school strive to have a occupation in the medical feild. In past years students enrolled in a heath class, either Allied Heath one or two, you could partisapate in what is known as clinicals. Clinical's are a wonderful experiiance, this allows students to go to a medical office or hospitial during the class period they have their health class. Clinicals allow students to really get hands on experiance on any medical profession they want to persue. For instance if you had a a intrest in the medical feild or perhaphs your child have a intrest in the medical feild they could get hands on experiance on the profession they think they want to persue. You could work with a surgon one day if that was the profession you thought you would want to persue. You would work with that surgon for 3 days, to see if that is really what you want to do, if you don't like it after going through the experiance of it, it could save you a lot of money. Instead of going through college getting a licence, and degree for a job in the medical feild and paying dollar after dollar, you would have had the experiance to already know if thats really the profession you want to persue, resulting in a lot of money saved. This class does not only provide hands on experiance but also you learn about the diffrent profession opitions you have, but hands on experiance is much better than reading about something. This is a wonderful program that was taken away this past year, and I am heartbroken that is was, my dream is to be a ultra sound technician, reading about it seems that is the perfect job for me however how will I ever know until I get some hands on experiance on that profession. Thank you for reading this, and I hope that you will help me bring back clinical's!
