Bowling Green High School students receive academic medical pins

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – A group of Bowling Green High School students were honored Monday for their accomplishments in a medical course.

BGHS’s medical students got their pins as a sign of completing the course that will help them in their future.

62 students were recognized. This includes those in the State Registered Nursing Assistant Program, as well as phlebotomy technicians and EMTs.

We spoke to one student, who told us how this course and her time as a Certified Nursing Assistant plans to shape her future after graduating.

“CNA is just to help me get comfortable with the medical setting and to get to know how to empathize and feel for the patients at the hospital, to give them the best care that I can give them,” Minako Wiedemer, a senior at Bowling Green High School says.

She told us she wants to be an occupational therapist after college.

We send a huge congratulations to all of those honored and best of luck in their future.
