The UVA Housestaff Council for Diversity and Inclusion (HCDI) recently hosted the second annual “Surgery & Anesthesia Day Camp” with the Boys & Girls Club of Central Virginia. Residents and faculty in the departments of Anesthesiology, Surgery, and Plastic Surgery guided local middle school students through hands-on simulation exercises. Activities included suturing using pigs’ feet, a laparoscopy simulation game, a CPR workshop, and intubation practice. The event also included a Q&A panel, where students had the opportunity to ask the residents about their experiences, and a learning session about the path to residency and different specialty options.
