This week we welcomed the next generation of healthcare professionals to Olive View–UCLA Medical Center.
Students from Sylmar Biotech, San Fernando High School, and Vaughn International Studies Academy joined us for High School Career Day. Students toured the hospital, connected with professionals across departments, and participated in a hands-on Skills Lab where they learned practical clinical skills like taking blood pressure, performing basic exams, and using ultrasound technology.
Students also learned about Narcan and how it can save lives during an opioid overdose, highlighting the importance of education and community health.
Thank you to all the staff, physicians, and residents who helped inspire the next generation of healthcare professionals. The future of healthcare is bright! 🩺
