THE POWER TO HEAL

Hospitals are big

What Would it be Like to Work at a Hospital?

There are lots of positions at a hospital, and everyone adds to the team.

You have to be ready for any kind of medical problem.

They all won't be emergencies, but people are counting on you to deliver the best standard of care.

Successful hospitals operate within a detailed strategy.

Regardless of your role, everyone on staff contributes to the overall health of the patient.

Doctor

How did you know you wanted to be a doctor?

Occupational Therapist Tech

Why do you love your job?

Clinical Trials Manager at OU Health Stephenson Cancer Center.


"In my opinion and in working with a lot of different kinds of nurses one the quickest ways out of poverty is through nursing. It has a great return on the investment."

Registered Nurses on average earn @$40 an hour or more, making @$138,000 year.

(High school students can start at their local career tech for free.) 


- Sherpa Silas Day (Silas loves managing health outcomes through research)

From Poverty to Purpose

Dr Ben Carson: "After reading books about people of tremendous accomplishments in all types of fields, it became clear to me that the person who has the most to do with what happens to you in life is you. Once I understood that, poverty didn't bother me anymore because I realized it was temporary. I knew I had the ability to change my circumstances."
