Students at Robert Turner College and Career High School studying health science could have an opportunity for hands-on learning after Pearland ISD’s board of trustees approved a partnership with HCA Houston-Pearland.
The board approved the partnership at its Oct. 14 meeting.
The overview
The partnership allows students to complete clinical rotations at the HCA facility for the district’s health science course and patient care technician program, according to board agenda documents.
The clinical rotations will be supervised and provide a “hands-on experience in a real-world healthcare environment,” board agenda documents note.
The term for the agreement between PISD and HCA Houston-Pearland will last two years.
