On July 15, 2011, the last day of the internship, Angel, Samiha and Aakash spent their time in the OCVMRC finalizing their research projects. After the projects were completed, the interns presented them to CAPT. Tosatto, LTJT Hager and OCVMRC intern Tahlia. Samiha gave a presentation on Promoting Public Initiatives that HOSA chapters and the Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) can implement in their schools and communities, while Aakash presented his Emergency Preparedness Competencies that could be utilized in HOSA competitions. Angel reviewed and gave suggestions of ways the Medical Reserve Corps could improve their website. CAPT. Tosatto, LTJT Hager took notes and are planning to utilize each project to enhance the relationship of the MRC and HOSA. Before the interns said their final goodbyes to Capt. Tosatto, CAPT. Tosatto presented the OSG OCVMRC-HOSA certificates to Angel, Samiha and Aakash. The internship was an awarding experience to the HOSA interns who had the first-hand experience to see how the infrastructure in the Public Health Service works. Sitting in on conference calls and meetings and receiving valuable lessons from different influential members of the OSG was a great opportunity for the interns to see and learn from. The OCVMRC and HOSA will continue to collaborate on ways to expand the opportunities for future HOSA interns, creating a growing partnership between the Medical Reserve Corps and Health Occupations Students of America.
