FARMINGTON — Franklin Memorial Hospital will host a Summer Scrub Club Camp taking place June 24 through 27 at Franklin Memorial Hospital.
The camp, which will be held from from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day, is designed to introduce participants to a wide variety of careers available in health care and is open to all students who will be entering grades eight to 12.
A sampling of careers explored may include physical therapy, sports medicine, nursing, orthopedics, community health, dentistry and emergency medical services, including “stop the bleed.”
Campers will have the opportunity to participate in unique hands-on activities and demonstrations such as casting, suturing, first aid and emergency response to a mock accident. All campers will receive certification in American Heart Association Heartsaver CPR and First Aid.
There is a fee for the camp, which includes lunch each day. For more information or to register, contact the education department at 207-779-2381 or email tsdawson@fchn.org or jbradley@fchn.org.
This program is primarily sponsored by the Franklin Memorial Hospital Area Health Education Center, a member of the Maine AHEC Network, supported by a grant from the Health Resources and Services Administration.
