JUMP
What is JUMP?
The Valencia Medical Science Academy's Junior Upcoming Medical Professionals (JUMP) program is designed to prepare and give incoming eighth-grade students a jump start into the Medical Science Academy. In this program, students focus on improving their communication and teamwork skills, which are essential in the medical field. They also gain practical experience in patient care, learn important medical terminology, and more. Through hands-on activities, participants are introduced to basic medical procedures, helping them build a strong foundation for future studies and careers in healthcare. The JUMP program aims to inspire students and equip them with the skills needed for success in the medical profession.
