Today is National Caregiver Appreciation Day! Please take a moment to honor and thank the selfless caregivers who dedicate their time, energy, and compassion to those in need—whether caring for individuals with disabilities, illnesses, or the elderly. At the Saginaw Career Complex, students in the Nursing program are learning firsthand what it means to be a caregiver. Through a partnership with Hoyt Nursing Home, they gain real-world experience in a clinical setting, developing the skills and empathy needed to make a difference in patients' lives. Thank you to our healthcare providers as well as our incredible SCC instructors who work in the field of taking care of others! We appreciate you! #CaregiverAppreciationDay #CTEWorks #FutureHealthcareHeroes #ourctestory #OurStory
