BIRMINGHAM, Ala. ( WIAT ) — Students from Booker T. Washington K-8 School’s health club visited the UAB School of Nursing Friday afternoon.

The students participated in a simulation and skills lab tour, with one case centered around babysitting and first aid. UAB nursing students were also available to teach them about health, first aid, nutrition and how to obtain their Red Cross Safe Sitter certification.

The trip is part of the UAB School of Nursing’s MAGICCity Health program, a community-based project aimed at increasing positive health behaviors in family units.

The program is funded by the Healthy Tomorrow’s Partnership for Children Program, a competitive grant program that funds community-based projects aimed at promoting children’s health prevention programs and improving access to health care.
