What a fun first week for our new Project SEARCH interns from Thomaston-Upson Schools at Upson Regional Medical Center! 🎉
The week has been filled with meeting new people, building friendships through team-building activities, and discovering the many departments that make URMC such a wonderful place to work and learn. Our interns have embraced new experiences with enthusiasm and curiosity as they begin their journey toward gaining valuable workplace and life skills.

We are excited to watch them grow in confidence, develop their talents, and achieve great things throughout the year. Here's to a fantastic start and an amazing year ahead! 💜🖤💙💚

We had an incredible day of learning, collaboration, and purpose in our Exceptional Children Services department as we prepare to start a new school year. 💜

Our focus this year is simple: Be the Steady.

In every classroom, meeting, hallway, and moment of challenge—we are committed to being:
✔️ The voice that believes in students
✔️ The steady presence our students, teams, and families can count on

✨ Our students deserve the very best—and that’s what we’re bringing. ✨

A huge thank you to our presenters who shared their knowledge and passion with our teachers! 💜 Thank you for being the steady voices who equip and encourage others to make a difference for our students!
