Each child at the center receives gifts from the faculty and students as well as additional toys for the day room and classroom such as art supplies, interactive toys,\u00a0 clothes and decorative blankets.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll senior students in the Respiratory Care program rotate to complete some clinical education at the facility,\u201d said Department Chair Patricia Hyland. \u201cThey get to know the children and the staff there. This has become an annual tradition for our department and a perfect way to celebrate the holiday season.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The annual tradition is funded through the generosity of students and faculty from the Respiratory Care program. This year, 13 senior students represented the class and took part in the celebration with the children.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Published:<\/strong>\u00a0Fri, 20 Dec 2024 12:38:00 +0000 by\u00a0d.teneyck<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; On Thursday, Dec. 19, the college\u2019s Respiratory Care senior students held their annual holiday gift giving celebration for the&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2086,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23331","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-accolades"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23331","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2086"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23331"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23331\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23331"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23331"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23331"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
