Photos and Story by

PCC’s chapter of the National Student Nurses Association is putting together the fourth annual Haunted Hospital, which is a fun, educational and scary day focused on promoting health and safety for children – just in time for Halloween!

Open to the public, the event will take place Saturday, Oct. 31 from noon to 5 p.m., at the Sylvania Campus in HT 217. The nursing lab is transformed into a frightful hospital, complete with slime and scary-looking patients in need of care and there to scare!

The cost is $4 per person or $3 per person with one can or box of a non-perishable food item. Those with PCC identification cards: bring them and receive $1 off. PCC students, faculty and staff – bring your families, and your ID cards, and pay only $5 total.

All proceeds help support PCC’s chapter of the NSNA for its community outreach efforts throughout the year; food collected that day will be given to the Oregon Food Bank. For more information, contact Liz McPhee, president of PCC’s NSNA chapter, at lizzymcphee@gmail.com.
