Business Partnership: Middlesex County
JFK Medical Center
The recipient of the Middlesex County Business Partnership award is JFK Medical Center. Sara Lazarus BSN, RN-BC, clinical educator for the facility, supports and coordinates all clinical site activities for the students in the Allied Health and Biomedical Sciences program. JFK Medical Center partners with the Academy to provide students with the opportunity to extend their educational instruction into an actual clinical observational experience. Thus far, twenty-five students have benefited from this experience. The relationship between JFK Medical Center and the Middlesex County Academy for Allied Health and Biomedical Sciences is extremely beneficial as it further assists in satisfying the clinical hours and career shadowing requirements of the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey for college credit. The relationship with JFK Medical Center has grown over the past two years. Ms. Lazarus has been instrumental in creating a program that is valuable to students seeking a career in medicine. She has practiced as a registered nurse in several clinical areas throughout the United States. As an educator within the Solaris Health Care System she was eager to share her knowledge with the students and identified the importance of the clinical partnership between facilities. She is a dedicated member of the Advisory Committee.
