Title
C5 - Life Care Center of Orange Park
Description

Life Care Center of Orange Park is an outstanding business partner which provides opportunities for CTE Health Science Students to conduct clinical rotations in their facility.

Gap Analysis

The Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) industry certification required students to participate in clinical hours in a hospital setting to earn their CNA certification.  Life Care of Orange Park allows CTE students to do these clinical hours at their facility.  Industry certifications prepare students for college and careers, provide bonus funding for CTE programs, and contribute to each school's grade.

Previous Outcomes

Clay County's Health Science programs have partnered with Life Care of Orange Park and other healthcare institutions for clinicals, resulting in nearly 100 CNA certifications during the 2017-2018 school year.

Expected Outcomes

Hands-on experiences like clinical rotations in healthcare facilities prepare students for college and careers. Additionally , an increase in CNA industry certifications is also expected.

Strategic Plan Goal

Strategy 1.3:  Prepare all students to be full option graduates who are prepared for college, eligible to enlist in military services, or able to compete in the workforce.
