The MedSplash! camp took place during July of 2022 on the Lane CC campus. Students learned about high wage/high demand health careers, toured state-of-the-art medical facilities and practiced a variety of hands-on skills including taking blood pressure, taking dental x-rays, and becoming certified in First Aid and CPR

This project defines the true meaning of partnership as it builds from an existing network of Lane County educators, local transitional housing organizations, community-based organizations, industry and workforce to align and support local housing shortages with the construction of 30 temporary shelters

As stated by instructor Wheylin Niehus, his students are not only honing the skills they have learned but are also helping people in the community. View the video for the full story here:
