Sometimes hands-on learning gets a little messy.
Our Medical Assistant students practiced identifying healthcare hazards and applying real-world safety procedures through an interactive environmental safety challenge. Well done!
Our second-semester Student Medical Assistants put their environmental safety skills to the test today!
Their challenge? Dig through a bag of garbage to find an unknown item and determine what they had found, what safety concerns it presented, and how it should be handled appropriately in a healthcare setting.
Sometimes hands-on learning gets a little messy! 😆 But these future Medical Assistants were learning to recognize hazards, think critically, and apply proper safety procedures in a realistic clinical situation.
Who knew digging through garbage could be part of preparing for a career in healthcare? 🩺🗑️👏
Great job, second-semester student Medical Assistants!
