Educators will have the chance to fully engage in Tower Health, Reading Hospital's Surgery in Action and Career Inspirations programs, experiencing them just as students would.
Here’s a brief overview of each program:
Surgery in Action: This program gives students an inside look at a surgical procedure and the various medical roles involved in the operating room. A surgeon presents and narrates a pre-recorded surgery, explaining the anatomy and procedure step-by-step. The session concludes with a hands-on activity—previous experiences have included using a laparoscopic simulator and the Da Vinci surgical robot.
Career Inspirations: In this event, students rotate through three interactive sessions, each highlighting a different healthcare career. Past sessions have included TowerDIRECT, Stop the Bleed, and Robotic Surgery. Each one combines an informative presentation with a hands-on component to deepen student understanding and engagement.
