Our HR team was proud to represent our organization at STEM Futures Day at Catawba Valley Community College, connecting with seventh grade students from Catawba County Schools and members of the community.

Through engaging conversations and interactive demonstrations, our HR team highlighted the wide range of opportunities in healthcare—from roles that begin with high school credentials to careers requiring two‑year and four‑year degrees. By sharing real experiences and career pathways, the team helped students see how science, technology, and compassion come together in meaningful healthcare careers.
