For many high school students, life beyond school still is a mystery, and a daunting one at that. That is where UNMC\u2019s College of Allied Health Professions stepped in last week.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The college hosted a special Backstage Pass event with students from Benson High School and Omaha Public Schools\u2019 new Westview High School to give them a glimpse into what allied health careers might offer them.  <\/p>\n\n\n

Booths from all of the UNMC allied health programs were set up with specialized and interactive activities that professionals in these careers use in their day-to-day practice, including microscopes for students to peer through, MRI scans and X-rays to analyze, family trees to explore and other specialized technology and equipment used during exams or procedures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kaitlyn Uwazurike, DPT, an assistant professor of physical therapy, helped facilitate her program\u2019s booth and enjoyed imparting her passion and guidance onto students. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe students were genuinely excited about the other stations they visited, and you could tell they were having a lot of fun,\u201d Uwazurike said. \u201cThey kept returning to our booth to compete with their peers for the best grip strength.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The group of more than 150 high schoolers are part of health care-specific programs designed to set them up for success in medical careers before they enter college. The students <\/s>have a unique insight into numerous career paths within the health care field but can gain only so much knowledge from learning in a classroom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSeeing a hands-on experience, they\u2019ll be like \u2018Miss! Did you know they do this?\u2019 and I\u2019m like \u2018Yeah! We talked about it in class,\u2019\u201d said Robyn Jernigan, lead teacher for the Health Profession Academy at Benson High School.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBut it\u2019s real. Now it\u2019s real. Now it\u2019s a profession they can do, not just this information on a screen.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the past seven years, Benson has paved a path for numerous students into health and medical fields through the Health Professions Academy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Day Pla Htoo, a Health Professions Academy student, said his favorite booths were physical therapy and respiratory care, the College of Allied Health Professions\u2019 newest program opening in 2024. Htoo, who is interested in becoming a cardiothoracic surgeon, said the day was an eye-opening experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event \u201copened up my mind about different medical fields,\u201d Htoo said. \u201cSeeing from their perspective … you can actually see what they\u2019ve been through throughout their career.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Westview offers numerous pathways programs for unique educational discovery and career exploration before students go on to higher education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rachael Arens, EdD, Westview\u2019s curriculum specialist, said the pathways program allows <\/s>students to explore many careers, as well as hone in on the careers they develop interest in through internships and job shadowing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lily Malcom, a health, science and physical education teacher, described the greatest strength of Westview\u2019s approach to learning as the ability to help students narrow options moving forward. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou get to experience, not necessarily failure, but things that you don\u2019t want to do without having to be making big decisions and big commitments,\u201d said Malcom. \u201cThis Backstage Pass gives us a great opportunity to be like, \u2018What do you like, what don\u2019t you like?\u2019 And I think the pathways just gives them space to grow and make mistakes and learn from them.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Booths from the University of Nebraska at Omaha and Metropolitan Community College also provided expertise and resources on the first steps they offer before someone enters one of UNMC\u2019s programs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the career that students set for themselves now may not be the one they pursue in the future, events such as Backstage Pass will help to guide them on their path into health care. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Said Jernigan, \u201cKnowing can help them search, even as a senior in high school, or maybe it\u2019s not till you\u2019re a sophomore or junior in college that you are saying, \u2018That one thing is still sticking with me, I want to look into that,\u2019 so that search engine is important if you have the right words to search.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
