Our Rural Health Careers Promotion programme is touring in the Gisborne/Hawkes Bay Region!
If you are a school or clinic practice in this region or these towns, please feel free to contact samantha.hill@htrhn.org.nz if you wish to get involved with the programme.
The Rural School Visits is an interactive workshop where volunteer tertiary health students majoring in a range of health professions (i.e. dental, nursing, physiotherapy, etc) who have come from rural backgrounds or are interested in working rurally after graduation, will give a 1-2 hour workshop with fun activities teaching year 9 – 13 students about human anatomy, and what it’s like studying medicine and health – all through practical techniques that they’d use in real rural health careers (i.e. checking blood pressure, making dental molds, etc).
