This innovative approach to health education is being run in partnership with KIKASS <\/a>(Keeping Indigenous Kids at Secondary School), a high school support program for Indigenous students at Bairnsdale Secondary College run by the Smith Family.<\/p>\n Students will be given a tour of the school, visit the skills lab and be trained in basic life support with the help of Jimmy, the hi-tech mannequin. They will also hear from nurses, doctors and students about careers in health and have the opportunity to ask questions in a small group setting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The School of Rural Health \u2013 East Gippsland education centre in Bairnsdale will host a special forum\u00a0 – Just Looking @ Careers in Health – in April to encourage local students, and Indigenous students in particular, to consider a career in health.
