The program aims to expose local students to medical career opportunities at

local Community Hospitals - Valley View Medical Center and Western Arizona

Regional Medical Center. Over a two-week 80-hour timeframe, students

will job shadow in every area of the hospital. From learning about the role of nurses

to food service and maintenance systems - there is a little bit of everything for

students to experience. At the end of the program, we hope students will find a

career in the healthcare field.
