WLKY – Local nonprofit teams with UofL club offering mini-med school to JCPS students

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — A Louisville nonprofit is giving JCPS high school students an up-close look at what medical school is like.

SOS International teamed up with “Project Heal,” a club at UofL School of Medicine, to host a free mini-med school for students on Saturday.

Students got CPR training, learned how to give medical exams and communicated with patients.

“This program will not only give these students an introduction to the many different types of careers in health care but it will also introduce them to the idea that they can do this– that a career in medicine doesn’t have to be just for someone else,” said SOS education manager Chanda Fowler.
