Students today, staff tomorrow

Are you looking to draw future talent to your facility? Consider holding a youth day like the one presented by the Arizona Healthcare Recruiters Network. At its Youth Day 2002, 400 middle school and high school students met with representatives from nursing, respiratory therapy, pharmacy, and medical imaging. Sponsor a youth day at your facility that provides students with the opportunity to:

Holding a youth day is not only a great way to expose students to the health care field, but also to specific career opportunities at your facility.
