Junior Volunteer Program


Junior Volunteer Program

Bassett Healthcare Network's Junior Volunteer Program lasts for eight weeks during the summer and provides students with insight into health care careers and appropriate training. Students are expected to volunteer at least two days per week for a minimum of four hours each day. Students will be required to attend an information and orientation session as well as training in infection control, confidentiality, and service excellence.

The Service Excellence / Volunteer Services offices are only responsible for students during scheduled volunteer assignment hours; parents or guardians must ensure that students are supervised during any other time during the workday.
