Created by Las Vegas resident Kamalisha Green, the Junior Docs experience includes a:
- Junior Docs Lab featuring Grabby Germs & Learning about the Emergency department
- Meet an ER Doctor & ER Nurse
- ER Tour
- Refreshments & Gift
Registration is required and is open to the first 16 students by visiting: Juniordocsprogram@gmail.com
If you need to cancel, please email Juniordocsprogram@gmail.com so another child participate.
Green developed the collaborative program to help area students explore the many aspects of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Math) and building science sense and confidence.
“We’re excited to host Junior Docs at our location,” said Jim Holtz, manager of the ER at Blue Diamond. “There are so many opportunities in the medical field, whether it’s nursing, imaging, laboratory medical technician or an emergency medicine physician, and we’re looking forward to introducing the new generation to the possibilities.”
