Videos, posters, resumes and Project SEARCH interns combined to make a memorable evening on Monday, February 22, 2016. Guests perused booths staffed by Project SEARCH interns at Central Peninsula Hospital. Skills obtained while working alongside hospital mentors were highlighted by each KPBSD student intern. Poster boards created by students featured skills such as taking vitals, slicing and dicing with kitchen knives, reading gauges and gases, sanitizing beds, and scanning, faxing, copying. Individual posters showed snippets of interns in action.
Each intern prepared a video showcasing themselves in action, demonstrating skills learned on rotation. Everything from tightening a bolt with wrenches to analyzing and adjusting anesthesia billing sheets rolled across the screen. The event, attended by family, school district employees, hospital employees and the public provided a glimpse into the valuable job skills the interns are learning and their future plans of employment utilizing these skills.
