A graduating senior from the Carthage Central School District, Dana will attend Yale University this fall as a pre-med student. She has already demonstrated an incredible commitment to her future career, spending over 200 hours shadowing healthcare professionals and gaining hands-on insight across various clinical units right here at Carthage Area Hospital
