Mission

Highlands College Health Programs prepare students to meet the highest standards necessary to succeed in the health care industry. We strive to assist students with educational preparation through the integration of technology, communications, problem-solving, and technical skills.

The Health Programs blend theory with practice to assure the opportunity for students to gain the skills and knowledge needed to work in specific health care jobs. Work-based learning opportunities through clinical experiences and practicum’s are provided with each program.

The Health Programs Department endeavors to assist students to meet their employment goals and to instill a high standard of care and empathy as health care providers. These jobs demand a high level of independent judgment, effective communication and problem-solving skills, and quality customer service. Our students are prepared to enter the health care industry as desirable and capable workers.
