Kansas HOSA

Cool opportunity for students!! Check it out!

Check out one of our new chapters already off to a rolling start! Rooks County Health Center is one of our 15 new chapters for this year showing a strong partnership between the health center and the local school district!

You read that right, 15 new chapters already this year!! It's going to be another great year in Kansas HOSA!

Learning healthcare goes beyond the classroom.

Through USD #270's Healthcare Occupation Exploration program, local students have the opportunity to step inside different areas of healthcare, learn alongside professionals, and get a firsthand look at careers they may one day pursue.

This week, students spent time with the Rooks County Health Center Rehab team, getting an up-close look at the work they do with patients every day.

Experiences like these give HOSA (Future Healthcare Professionals) students a chance to ask questions, try something new, and discover where their interests might take them.

We're proud to give the next generation of healthcare professionals a place to learn right here in Rooks County, and we hope these experiences inspire students to pursue careers in healthcare and one day return to Rooks County to work and serve their community.
