A donation of operating room equipment to the allied health program at UC Clermont is credited with helping students to gain an even clearer view into their future career.

An anesthesia machine and operating microscope, both used, were recently donated to the medical program by Mercy Hospital Clermont for use in the surgical technician program.

Sharman Willmore, Director of Allied Health for UC Clermont, said that Mercy Clermont has been very supportive of the program since it began.

“Mercy Clermont has made donations in the past,” said Willmore. “They have been very supportive in terms of clinical experience and sitting on our advisory committee. We’ve been very happy with their support.”
