This is a great outreach program by the Hospital to let our local youth know about great high paying jobs hear locally in the Medical Field. On of the goals mentioned by Hospital President Feliciano Jiron is to let students know about the range of jobs available here in Calaveras County and hopefully some of our local students will be back as employees after they have finished their education.
The camp was spearheaded by Johanna Jiron and Nicki Stevens. We have full video of the luncheon including the great impromptu speeches by the attendees.
They will be holding the second week of Summer Camp on July 6-10. If you have any questions about the Summer Health Career Camp, please contact Hospital Administration at 754-2515
