Parish students participate in healthcare program
Selected students from Jeff Davis Parish had “AHEC (Area Health Education Centers) of a Summer” volunteering in a healthcare observation program. Students enrolled in AHEC rotated through various departments of Ochsner American Legion Hospital, Edward’s Family Medicine, Broussard Family Medicine and Skincare, Jeff Davis Chiropractic, Thibodeaux, Albro, Touchet, The Therapy Center and Leger Family Dentistry. Students heard from guest speakers, traveled to healthcare training facilities and engaged in hands-on lab activities to gain insight into healthcare careers over the two-week course.
