We are proud to host students from the CCMA class completing their work-based experience with our team and residents. These exceptional students bring so many smiles and warmth to our home.
Thank you Lockhart ISD for allowing your students to learn and grow with our residents. It is a joy to watch them grow into the next generation of healthcare professionals.
Tonight, we are proud to recognize three outstanding students from our CCMA program at Lockhart High School who demonstrated extraordinary courage, professionalism, and composure in real life emergency situations.
Emily Santander and Amy Rodriguez, who are completing their work based learning training at an assisted living facility, responded to a medical emergency involving a resident. Drawing on their clinical training, they quickly assessed the resident’s blood pressure, recognized that it had dropped below normal levels, and immediately alerted their supervisor to ensure that 911 was contacted.
Their calm demeanor, rapid response, and ability to apply classroom knowledge in a real world crisis played a critical role in getting that resident the urgent care they needed.
We also want to recognize Preslyee Reynolds, who stepped in without hesitation when a fellow student experienced a seizure on campus. While others were unsure how to respond, Preslyee took immediate action. She followed proper emergency procedures, ensured the student’s safety, and provided critical information to EMS upon their arrival. Her quick thinking and composure made a significant difference in that moment.
These young women embody what it means to have a Lockheart for people. They demonstrated compassion, skill, and professionalism under pressure, and they represented their program, their campus, and our district with pride.
Students, as I call your name, please step forward for your recognition:
⭐ Emily Santander
⭐ Amy Rodriguez
⭐ Preslyee Reynolds
These students are accompanied this evening by CTE Health Science Teacher Zera James, LISD CTE Coordinator Katy Ratliff, and Lockhart High School Principal Michael Herbin.
