Department of Anesthesiology in partnership with UVA Health and the Housestaff Community Development Initiative (HCDI), the program once again welcomed Charlottesville\u2019s City of Promise middle school students for a day of immersive exploration into the world of healthcare.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Held on Wednesday, April 29th from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., this year\u2019s camp built on past success while expanding to include Radiology as well as Perioperative Nurses and Surgical Technicians, bringing even more of the care team into view.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">At its core, UVA Health Day Camp is about sparking possibilities. Through hands-on activities, mentorship, and real conversations with healthcare professionals, students get a glimpse of what a future in medicine could look like and the many paths it can take.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cEvery time I partner with City of Promise, I walk away inspired,\u201d said <\/span><b>Dr. Josh Roach<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, UVA anesthesiologist and event co-lead. \u201cTheir middle schoolers approached Health Camp Day with excitement and curiosity, which made the entire experience unforgettable.

I was also overjoyed to recognize some of the students and see their growth.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The morning kicked off with icebreakers and a resident panel, where students asked thoughtful questions<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> about the journey to medicine and explored career paths ranging from nursing to pediatrics.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_18808\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18808\" class=\"wp-image-18808\" src=\"https:\/\/med.virginia.edu\/anesthesiology\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/233\/2026\/05\/City-of-Promise_6-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-18808\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Victoria Bailey, MD, and Faiz Plastikwala, MD walking students through using a glidescope<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">From there, the group moved into interactive sessions such as scrubbing in like surgical staff with perioperative nurses and diving into the world of imaging through a new Radiology station.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">By the afternoon, the energy only grew. Students rotated through hands-on stations where they practiced intubation, used ultrasound to visualize the heart and veins, and perhaps, most memorably, located their own veins using real ultrasound machines. In the Anatomy Lab, curiosity turned into awe as students examined real organs, compared healthy and diseased lungs, and gained a deeper appreciation for the human body.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The day wrapped up with smiles, new inspiration, and gift bags filled with portable CPR kits, stethoscopes, and other tools to keep the learning going.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cIt was such a blast to show off what a fun and exciting job we have to kids who are enthusiastic and could one day grow up to be our colleagues,\u201d said <b>Dr. Sam Konkol<\/b>. \u201cI\u2019d highly recommend this experience to any resident or fellow feeling worn down or overwhelmed.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>As the program enters its third year, one thing is clear: UVA Health Day Camp is more than a one-day event. It\u2019s a growing investment in the future of healthcare.
