Amador County – This past school year, local students found out that not all learning takes place in the classroom. Amador County teens from both Argonaut and Amador High Schools in the Regional Occupational Program, or ROP, received health care work experience firsthand at Sutter Amador Hospital. Eighteen of these young adults were honored at the hospital’s Student Appreciation Day Breakfast on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 in the community conference center. Barbara Wells, Education Manager, opened the program by welcoming everyone and introducing the ROP health instructor from the Amador Unified School District, Linda Critchfield, and special guests Dick Glock , Schools Superintendent and Pat Miller, School District Board Member. Wells and Critchfield presented certificates to each of the students who participated. Department directors and staff directly responsible for instructing the student thanked them for the contributions they made to their departments and shared personal information about how each student was impacted and grew throughout the year by the experiences they were able to gain. Anne Platt, CEO, concluded the reception by sharing with the students the many rewards working in health care has in store for them and encouraged those who do choose a career in health care to remain committed and passionate about their chosen field. Platt said: “I know that as long as each of you stays committed to your vision, the future of healthcare is in good hands.” Staff Report This email address is being protected from spambots.
