Members of the Future Health Care Professionals Club visited Nyack Hospital Emergency Department on February 1, 2012 and delivered care packages to the pediatric patients.  The students heard presentations by Dr. Sachin Shah and by a panel of personable, knowledgeable, and inspiring guest speakers including Emergency Department nurses and Rockland Paramedics.  The students found the field visit to be a very positive and informative experience as they continue their exploration of different health care career options.
