ARMC seeking healthcare professionals to mentor students
Arrowhead Regional Medical Center (ARMC) is partnering with Reach Out/Inland Coalition and Colton High School’s Health Education Academy of Learning (HEAL) to encourage students to pursue careers in healthcare. The academy is seeking healthcare professionals for the upcoming school year to mentor a group of students with an interest in the healthcare field. Mentors meet with students once a month for two hours and use materials provided through a curriculum.
Healthcare professionals who are interested in mentoring a student can attend a networking session at ARMC on Thursday, Aug. 13, at 4 p.m. in the Oak Room. Refreshments and light appetizers will be provided. To learn more, log on to: www.BeAMentorEvent.eventbrite.com
ARMC’s ongoing partnership with Colton High School’s HEAL academy has provided students with the opportunity to get a first-hand look at healthcare. Over the years, students have visited with ARMC healthcare professionals from the emergency department, medical imaging, the clinical lab and other departments, which provided them with the chance to see physicians and medical staff in action.
ARMC, along with the County of San Bernardino, is committed to partnering with all sectors of the community to support the success of every child from cradle to career.
