CAMC promotes health care careers

Local high school students will gain an up-close look at surgery and health care career options during the second Imagine U: Virtual Healthcare Experience broadcast.

Charleston Area Medical Center representatives will be on hand Thursday at Charleston Catholic High School and Buffalo High from 8 to 10 a.m.

Imagine U is a collaborative effort between CAMC and the West Virginia Department of Education that introduces students to health care careers using technology that links classrooms to hospitals.

Participants will view open-heart surgery and hear about careers from health care professionals. A cardiovascular surgeon will conduct a question and answer session with students.
