At this event, Urban Assembly students will speak to members of the SJC Brooklyn nursing faculty and learn about the opportunities that exist within the field of nursing. After viewing the skills lab, students will see the interactive training mannequins in the simulation lab and learn first-hand what they can come to expect if they pursue a degree in nursing.
“We are excited to collaborate with St. Joseph’s College to help our students envision a future in the health care field after they graduate,” said Kara Hamilton, partnership coordinator for the Urban Assembly for Collaborative Healthcare. “The tour of the College’s nursing lab is just one way that we intend to work with St. Joseph’s to create pathways to life beyond high school.”
