PRE MED CLUB

This afternoon, members of the Pre-Med club participated in their third medical experience as part of our partnership with the Charles E. Shcmidt School of Medicine at Florida Atlantic University. For this experience, students gained hands-on experience as they interacted with life-like mannequins under the supervision of trained medical professionals. Mr. Mark Goldstein and Dr. Randi Sperling facilitated this trip's activities and graciously offered to our students a wealth of information regarding the medical school application process as well as diversity within the medical community.

With regard to the simulation, our students were able to examine and conduct patient histories. Students learned to ask appropriate questions and refine possible diagnoses based on patient responses and physical assessment. These assessments included monitoring vitals such as respiratory and heart rates, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation.

Equipped with these newly acquired skills, we hope to enhance student interest in medical professions as several of our Juniors and Seniors hold aspirations to one day practice medicine. We are excited to continue these experiences into second semester with even more fun, and educational programs.
