September 2, 2024

Bayhealth has partnered with the Delaware Public Health Association’s Delaware Academy of Medicine and the Sussex County Health Coalition to present the Early Fall 2024 Delaware Mini-Medical School series. This virtual experience is a free, six-week course designed for middle school, high school and undergraduate students who are interested in a healthcare career path and want to learn more about the various opportunities available.

The virtual sessions will be hosted in an online classroom setting at 6:30 p.m., Wednesdays, Sept. 11 through Oct. 9. Each session will feature an in-depth lecture with a Bayhealth subject matter expert, followed by time for questions. The topics include cardiology, health informatics, anesthesia, emergency medicine, radiology and psychiatry.

Participants who attend all six sessions will receive a signed certificate of completion and the opportunity to join the Delaware Youth Medical Academy.

“As the healthcare workforce in central and southern Delaware continues to grow and evolve, providing opportunities like the mini-medical school is essential to supporting our next generation of team members,” said Alana King, Bayhealth workforce development specialist. “We are committed to continuously strengthen our local and state partnerships to offer workforce development opportunities to community members.”

This program is also made possible by the Delaware Health Force Initiative and supported by state and local fiscal recovery funds through the Department of Treasury and the State of Delaware.
