St. Joseph Hospital

Health Scholar

February 2017 • Orange, CA

What I liked

I was on the Oncology unit this summer. Even though a lot of the cases were sad, many of the patients had hope which was encouraging. The staff was very kind and let me help them with various tasks. Being a Health Scholar is great because you get to see all kinds of different patients, staff, and floors of the hospital.

What I wish was different

There isn't anything I would change about the program.

Advice

Be active. Do not expect the nurses and CNAs to know you and ask you to do stuff. Talk to them and they will always have something to teach you. It's a long program and a lot of hours, but there is always something new to learn.
