Pre-Nursing Club
Akron City Schools fourth and fifth graders are already planning their careers in health care with memberships in the Pre-Nursing Club for minority-disadvantaged students coordinated by the Northeastern Ohio Universities Medical College.Baccalaureate nursing students from the University of Akron go to the schools and meet with elementary school students before the school day begins.
During club meetings, UA nursing students develop activities appropriate to this age group, including hands-on demonstrations of various procedures performed by nurses. The elementary students also learn how to live healthy lives.
This before-school club encourages minority-disadvantaged students to consider nursing and other health care professions as future careers.
