“The campers will each get an opportunity to shadow in a few areas that interest them,” Lanae Romann, MSN, RN, director of nursing for Saint Francis Medical Center, told KFVS. “They’ll actually be paired up one on one with a healthcare worker here within the St Francis healthcare system.” 

Other activities include learning CPR, first-aid basics and stop-the-bleed training, a technique used in mass casualty situations. 

The camp currently has 15 students and will conclude July 22. The medical center hopes to continue the camp and attract new community members. 

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
