Volunteer Drew Seath inspires Carver interns with real-world advice and guidance

Drew Seath, Co-Chair of our Child of America gala on Friday, May 20, spoke to 20 Carver high school interns at Norwalk Hospital and then followed them through the students’ rotations.

Drew is Founder and Managing Director for Absolute Value LLC, a sales and marketing recruiting firm.

Drew gave the students interviewing tips and talked about being entrepreneurial in their career planning.

The Carver students wanted to hear more, but the internship program then got underway. Drew joined the students as they visited the Nurse Simulation Lab and then as they experienced a social work role-playing session.

Norwalk Hospital social workers provide emotional support, help answer questions and connect patients with other supportive services. Social workers work hand-in-hand with nurse navigators and the full team to help solve problems and facilitate care so patients can focus on their treatments.

Norwalk Hospital is a 366-bed hospital that cares for patients, their loved ones, and residents in Fairfield County and the surrounding New York Metropolitan area.

Norwalk Hospital is an acute care, academic hospital that provides patients with the latest in medical, surgical, and wellness services, including a Level II Trauma Center, Primary Stroke Center, Joint Replacement Center of Excellence, and advanced cancer, heart, and neurosciences care.

And now Norwalk Hospital is teaching Carver students!
