Meet the Instructor

The New Visions Health Professions program is open to seniors who plan to enroll in post-secondary two-or four-year colleges to study in a health-related field. Students in the program explore a variety of health occupations on site at Faxton-St. Luke’s Healthcare, as well as at other health facilities. Students develop competencies useful in a wide range of careers within the health field.

Through observations within various departments, students learn what is required of a health professional on a daily basis and how their training and education applies to real-life situations. New Visions students gain a better understanding of the professional demands of a busy work environment and the importance working together as a team can be for providing quality patient care.

Students completing the program receive four credits, including one in English 12, one in Government and Economics, and two health occupation credits. Dual credit for English 110 Oral and Written Communication is also integrated into the curriculum.
