👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️ Inside Look: Correctional Healthcare! 👨‍⚕️👩‍⚕️ Today, our Health Science and Sports Medicine classes had the privilege of hearing from James Faulkner, RN, Health Services Administrator, and Teresa Jones, Nurse Practitioner, from Tallahatchie County Correctional Facility. They gave students an eye-opening look into the world of correctional healthcare—sharing how they administer medications, provide daily medical care to inmates, follow safety procedures, and even some wild (but true!) stories from their real-life experiences. We are so thankful to Mr. Faulkner and Mrs. Jones for taking the time to visit and inspire our future healthcare professionals with their knowledge and experience! 📸 Check out the photos from their visit below!
