Prom 2025

The REAL Deal Health Careers Program was introduced to Lancaster High School students by senior nursing and paramedic students from Rappahannock Community College. This program provides high school students with an immersive experience that begins with a simulated pre-hospital scenario and progresses to a hospital setting. Through interactive skills stations, students will gain valuable insights into the collaborative and interprofessional nature of healthcare careers. This hands-on experience reflects the practical training that RCC offers to health science students, applying essential skills in real-world contexts. Students also became more aware of the programs that RCC can offer to help them achieve their goals of a career in the healthcare industry. We extend our sincere gratitude to Rappahannock Community College, the senior nursing and paramedic team, and Karen Hutchens for organizing this exceptional opportunity, which helps students explore to connect their passions to purposeful careers.
