Health Science Class Adventure
Our Health Science students recently had an incredible opportunity to visit Weber State University's Health Science department. This exciting educational trip allowed them to dive into the world of health sciences through hands-on experiences. Here are some highlights from their visit:
Listening to Breathing Sounds: Students learned how to use stethoscopes to listen for breathing sounds, gaining insight into respiratory health.
Intubating a Patient: They practiced the critical skill of intubation, understanding its importance in emergency medical situations.
Testing Blood Types: In the lab, students performed blood type tests, enhancing their knowledge of blood groups and compatibility.
Working in a Lab: Engaging with laboratory equipment, they got a taste of what it’s like to work in a real health science lab setting.
Exploring Lungs: Students got a closer look at lung anatomy and function, sparking curiosity about respiratory systems.
The tour provided a fantastic glimpse into the academic and career possibilities at Weber State University. Our students thoroughly enjoyed exploring the facilities and learning about the diverse opportunities available in the health sciences field.
We are excited to see the enthusiasm and interest this visit has sparked in our students. Thank you Mrs. Hartvigsen for providing experiences like these that broaden their horizons and inspire future healthcare professionals.
A big thank you to Weber State University for hosting us!
