Other High School Opportunities
Bellin College has a variety of opportunities for local high schools and their students to learn about careers in healthcare.
Are you thinking about a career in healthcare? Our Nursing Assistant program is a great way to start building your skills. Students must be at least 16 years of age. Nursing assistants (NA’s) are an essential member of a healthcare team, who work under the direct supervision of a nurse and perform basic duties such as dressing, bathing, feeding or transporting patients. To register, or for more information about the NA program, please contact: Patient Care Technicians (PCTs) play an essential role in the compassionate healthcare team, making a profound difference in the lives of patients and their families. As a PCT, you’ll step into a meaningful role, working closely with nurses and medical teams to deliver hands-on care and vital support. Join us for a day camp and explore the fields of nursing or allied health by getting hands-on experience in our simulation labs and at a local hospital! Camps include a camp t-shirt, lunch or dinner, supplies and fun giveaways! Job shadowing is an opportunity whereby students can spend time with an individual as that person goes about the tasks and activities associated with his/her job. Shadowing is meant to give students a first-hand view of the world of work as well as a chance to question and learn as they observe. A student’s motive in pursuing a job shadow activity is usually unique to that student’s needs and goals for the future. Job shadowing gives students an opportunity to ask questions that only someone in that specific field or position can answer. Bellin College, in partnership with local high schools, has created a free, one day experience in our Health Sciences Resource Center (HSRC) called Hands on Healthcare. Students spend the day rotating through stations practicing skills and techniques guided by Bellin College students, faculty and healthcare professionals. This immersive, hands-on experience promotes the advantages and benefits of pursuing a high demand career in healthcare using state-of-the-art technology.
