What's Working: Applying a cast to a teddy bear produces career awareness for students

GEAR UP students in New Hampshire had the opportunity to get hands-on experience in health care related fields last month. Students utilized time during their school vacation to visit Dartmouth-Hitchcock Manchester and explore careers in the health care field. One student, who has been interested in health care since a young age had this to say about their future, “I think after this field trip, I’ll actually be sure.” Students casted a teddy bear, explored the uses of ultrasound machines, and more.
