On Friday, October 17th, seven future healthcare leaders—three Lowcountry AHEC Scholar MUSC Physician Assistant students and four USC Beaufort nursing students—stepped into the world of high-stakes medicine during a High-Fidelity Patient Simulation experience!

From critical thinking to teamwork under pressure, these scholars put their skills to the test in a realistic clinical environment designed to mirror real-life patient care. Simulations like these are vital for preparing the next generation of providers to deliver safe, compassionate, and effective care.

Huge kudos to these students for embracing the challenge and showing what the future of healthcare looks like!
