Medical Requirements: All volunteers will work through Employee Health to obtain medical clearance at no charge to you. We require proof of 2 MMR vaccinations (Measles, Mumps, & Rubella), 2 Varicella immunizations or proof of having had chickenpox, a 2-step TB skin test or a TB blood test (T-SPOT or QFT) within the last 12 months and the annual flu vaccine during flu season. If you have not had recent TB testing, this will be provided at no cost if completed through Employee Health at Bethesda North (513) 865-1152, Good Samaritan (513) 862-2857. Miami University students can complete TB testing at the student health center on campus billed through insurance or self-pay, should you choose not to utilize Employee Health at the other two locations. You can work ahead by obtaining a copy of your immunization records and contacting an Employee Health location to schedule your appointment. If you do not have a copy of your immunizations, this is not a barrier to volunteer. Employee Health will work with you on your clearance by obtaining blood titers to check for immunity.
This step is not required to attend orientation.

Background Check: The hospital provides this service at no charge to you. You will receive instructions at Orientation regarding steps to take for your security clearance.

Orientation: Orientations sessions are designed to be respectful of your time. You will have the opportunity to ask all questions about specific roles, typical schedules, and open opportunities. If you choose to continue the process after attending orientation, our team will guide you through the onboarding process and placement.

Student Volunteers: 15+

Student Volunteering provides a valuable opportunity for high school and college students to gain experience, develop skills, and make a positive impact in their communities. Our program is structured into three cohorts - Fall, Spring and Summer - to accommodate busy academic schedules while ensuring that students gain meaningful experiences while serving consistently within the TriHealth system.

Fall and Spring cohorts - students are required to commit to a minimum of 40 hours, typically serving once a week. Summer cohorts - students are required to commit to a minimum of 35 hours. We understand that students may have conflicts due to holidays or other obligations; therefore, exceptions can be made for pre-approved dates to miss.
