University Pre-Health Students
Are you enrolled in pre-health major? Student volunteers gain valuable exposure to the clinical environment while earning hours required for application to specific programs. Students perform a variety of tasks including stocking supplies, assembling patient charts, and other duties as assigned by staff. We welcome students who are seeking a healthcare-related degree and have attained at least sophomore standing with a GPA of 3.0 or greater. This program runs throughout the traditional school year with the option to volunteer during the summer. If brought on as a sophomore or junior, there are options to continue through graduation. When applying for the traditional school year term, a two-semester commitment is required. Opportunities are available in several clinical areas of the hospital including Same Day Surgery, Medical-Surgical/Intensive Care Unit, BirthPlace, and Emergency Department.
