Lending a helping hand

MGH employees received some eager help Feb. 1 as students from East Boston High School visited the hospital for the City of Boston’s annual Groundhog Job Shadow Day. The goal of the event was to help students make the connection between classroom and workplace learning, allowing them to observe professionals at work and offer assistance when appropriate. Employees from the MGH Cancer Center, Same-Day Surgery, Office of the President, Neurology/Neurogenetics, Physical Therapy and Medicine participated in the program.
