MTC surgical addition a real dummy
Meet Howie, the newest member of the Surgical Technology family at Manatee Technical College.
Joelle Prado, an instructor for the Surgical Technology program, asked her students to name the new “trauma man,” or surgical simulation mannequin.
To Prado’s surprise, her students stuck with the theme of names beginning with “H” and named the mannequin Howie. The program has two other mannequins named Helga and Herman.
