Champlain Valley AHEC (CVAHEC) and The Franklin County Home Health Agency (FCHHA) regret to announce that the 2016 A Day in the Life opportunity for Franklin County students will be postponed until the spring of 2017.  There has been some restructuring of staff at FCHHA along with an increased demand for their services in the community.  The decision was made to prioritize the needs of both staff and patients.   Both agencies want to give students the best possible training and job shadowing activities.  The professionals who volunteer to help with students at FCHHA are focusing on learning enhanced professional skills and serving the community.  FCHHA reported that they are sorry to miss this year with the CVAHEC students who they found to be very mature, motivated and impressive.
