Kearny BST Students Finish Rady’s Rotations!

Recently 25 seniors completed their hospital rotations at Rady’s Children’s Hospital. These students experienced 2 separate rotations in a different department at Rady’s. Students shadowed a doctor or nurse in departments such as: Radiology, NICU, Cardiology, Integrative Medicine, and Social Services.

Students feel they gained a deeper understanding of the day to day experiences of the professionals that they worked with. One student said, “I found this internship with Rady Children’s Hospital very beneficial. This allowed me the opportunity to see what a physician does on an average day. I also had the ability to solidify the career path in which I wish to follow, which is the medical field. Overall, I really appreciate the work that physicians do and I can not wait to someday become one.” 

The current 11th grade students are now starting to go out on their “community rotations" where they will perform community service in the healthcare field in an effort to get prepared for their hospital rotations next year. Thank you to the amazing staff at Rady’s Children’s hospital for making this possible for the students!
