Seattle Children's Scopes and Scrubs Camp (16 years old+) - Due April 11th!

About Scopes and Scrubs Camp:

Seattle Children’s is dedicated to hiring top healthcare professionals, creating a diverse and inclusive workforce, and encouraging high school students to explore careers in allied health. If you've ever had an X-ray, picked up medication from a pharmacy, had your blood pressure checked, or received lab work, you've interacted with an allied health professional. Allied health includes various healthcare workers who aren’t doctors or nurses. We’re offering high school students the chance to join our free Scrubs & ’Scopes Camp at Seattle Children’s. During this five-day camp, students will learn about different allied health careers by shadowing professionals like medical assistants, pharmacists, and lab scientists in departments such as Pharmacy, Radiology, Surgery, and Anesthesia. They’ll also take part in hands-on simulation labs, where they’ll practice skills like taking blood pressure, compounding medications, using microscopes, and taking X-rays. Students can also ask questions and learn about education and career paths in allied health.
