Recently, a group of Biotechnological and Biomedical students went on a field trip to Stormont Vail, where they explored what the hospital was like.
21 students attended the field trip, exploring numerous departments throughout Stormont Vail, which included Cytology, Pathology, Microbiology, and more. Students also observed the collection of samples, as well as the analysis of it, which allowed them to see how a diagnosis is reached. They watched healthcare professionals simulate real life medical scenarios through manikins. The group also visited the NICU, where they got to observe how premature newborns and newborns in critical condition are cared for. Students gained lots of knowledge through this field trip, and got to see what it is like to work in the medical field.
