Made for Medicine physicians and medical student volunteers visited Champion Middle School recently. Founder and president Dr. Laura Espy-Bell, Outreach Faculty Lead Dr. Reversa Joseph, Dr. Christopher Brown, along with three medical students led stations on CPR, vitals, case studies, and splinting/fracturing that engaged over 50 sixth grade students.

Columbus City Schools Superintendent Dr. Angela Chapman was in attendance and observed CCS students discussing the medical profession, answering questions, and engaging in hands-on learning with real and emerging medical professionals.

The visit was part of Made for Medicine’s educational outreach program that provides hands-on enrichment activities with age-appropriate medical concepts and foundational learnings in medicine for students in Central Ohio.

“Outreach is our way of bringing the unique programming of Made for Medicine to future physicians across Central Ohio and connecting them with physicians in their community! We are planting the seeds now to create tomorrow's doctors. Schools like these in CCS are helping us in our work," said Dr. Espy-Bell.
