🩺 The first session of the 2025 Healthcare Careers Summer Camp is in full swing here at SVHEC’s Healthcare Training Hub! Campers have been diving into hands-on activities like creating trauma moulages (wounds), checking vital signs, exploring pH testing, and expressing wellness through mental health painting. They also had the opportunity to hear from a speech and language pathologist and learn more about careers that make a difference!

We're only halfway through, and the energy has been incredible! 👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️🧠💉🎨
