High School Volunteer Update
We are now accepting general high school volunteer applicants, ages 16-18 years old. Please apply here.
High School volunteers are a vital part of our volunteer team and some of our most enthusiastic members. They serve in a variety of patient care and administrative areas, perform clerical tasks, fulfill essential department project requests, transport patients and assist at various community events.
Volunteer Requirements
In addition to meeting the general requirements of all volunteers at Valley, high school volunteers must:
- Be at least 16 years of age
Note: All Valley Health System volunteers must have COVID-19 and influenza vaccinations.
High School Volunteer Assignments
Once we receive your electronic application, you will be contacted via e-mail to provide a reference. Once we receive your reference, you will be added to our Volunteer Information Session list.
Assignments are based on individual interests, skills and the needs of Valley Health System. Morning, afternoon, evening and weekend positions are available.
Please be advised that we do not offer shadowing opportunities to high school-age volunteers. You must be a rising third- or fourth-year college student focused on a medical career to be eligible to shadow.
Career Frontiers High School Internship Program for Senior Students
Please note applications are now closed for the 2023/2024 school year. Applications will reopen for the 2024/2025 school year on Monday, January 8th, 2024.
The newly reimagined Career Frontiers High School Internship is Valley Volunteer Resources' service-based learning experience. This program serves high school seniors pursuing their “Work-based Learning” internship for career readiness from any high school that supports this program.
Students complete this internship during the school day or outside of school hours and work alongside the mentor/department in which they are assigned. Students are matched with an experience based on interest and availability. The program starts in the Fall and continues throughout the Spring. Click here to apply once you've confirmed with your school that you are eligible for this type of internship.
