At the beginning of the month, Kezia offered students a workshop with hands-on demonstrations of some health procedures that she performs as a nurse. Students learned about:

- Explanation of vitals/what that means
- Explanation of circulation/heart functions
- Explanation of types of assessments

We are grateful to be able to offer our students a wide range of mentors who live and work in our community, who bring a diverse skill set, range of interests, and varied experiences.
