What’s happenin’ at CCHEC? Earlier this week Barb James’ high school CNA class spent some time in full medical gear. Our CNA classes are very dependent on hands-on experiences and learning. Students walked around the building and interacted with others as they experienced what it would be like if they were working in the medical field during the COVID-19 pandemic. Thank you, Barb James, for the learning opportunities you create for our students.
What’s happenin’ at CCHEC? Tonight’s Make and Take Date Night was a success! Check out some of the behind the scene action and cutouts. Thank you to everyone who participated and to our wonderful instructors Greg Garner and Mark Flaherty.
