The Junior Health Scholar program allows high school students between the ages of 16-18 to shadow a current Health Scholar or work independently in the patient care setting dependent on site requirements. Junior Health Scholars observe how care delivery and administrative teams work together to deliver excellent care and explore whether a career in health care is right for them. The program is offered year-round at select sites in California, Washington and Hawaii. Most individuals complete the program in nine (9) months with a commitment of one 4-hour shift per week or two 2-hour shifts per week. For those looking to complete the program faster, we offer a 6-month and 3-month option where you will receive priority shift selection. For sites that have an expanded scope of practice these scholars will work independently alongside staff members to perform basic patient care.
