We invite local high school students to embark on a transformative journey with our Junior Volunteer Program and make a meaningful impact in the world of medicine! This unique opportunity is designed for enthusiastic students eager to gain hands-on experience in a dynamic healthcare setting. By volunteering, students not only enhance their understanding of medical practices, but also develop invaluable skills while working alongside dedicated professionals. They have the opportunity to explore the diverse facets of healthcare, contribute to patient care, and build a strong foundation for their future career.
This summer program runs for 6 weeks each year. Applications become available in mid-January and remain open until the end of March. Please note that the program is highly competitive, and not all applicants will be accepted. Students are selected based on a variety of factors.

Our Junior Volunteers graciously commit their time and effort to serve our hospital and patients by helping the professional staff provide quality care. A Junior Volunteer’s commitment is important to the individuals they serve and to the community as a whole. While donating your time and efforts to our hospital, you will have the opportunity to see firsthand how a hospital operates. Hospital volunteer work also offers career exploration and learning opportunities. The skills that junior volunteers acquire through hospital work can be beneficial in future careers or educational endeavors.
Applications will re-open in January of 2025 for the Summer of 2025 Program
