What a summer for our Community Health Network Interns! ☀️

Representing a variety of departments, this talented group of students put learning into action and got a closer look at where a career in healthcare could take them. Throughout the program, they gained hands-on experience while learning from leaders, caregivers and one another.

From breakfast with CEO Dr. Patrick McGill and a Serve360 project at Coburn Place to team-building at Go Ape Zipline and Adventure Park, these interns embraced opportunities to connect, serve and grow alongside their peers. They also expanded their professional development through an AI in Healthcare Lunch & Learn with Corey Cady and participation in the DiSC Assessment, fostering awareness of self and others.

Thank you to our interns for the energy, curiosity and fresh perspectives you brought to Community. We're grateful for your hard work and dedication and can't wait to see where your journey takes you next!

We also appreciate Sandy Shaw Flowers for coordinating these meaningful experiences and supporting our interns throughout the program.
