Volunteen Program

“Think you’d like to spend some of your summer helping others? How about working on teams with other teens at Owensboro Health? If that sounds interesting, then apply to the Owensboro Health Volunteen Program. As a VolunTeen, you’ll have a truly rewarding experience on your summer break.

The work will be widely varied and will expose you to both clinical and non-clinical areas of Owensboro Health. The program runs from the first week in June through the end of July, and work schedules are flexible. All teen volunteers receive supervision from Owensboro Health-employed college students.

We are excited to share that applications are now being accepted for the 2024 Summer Teen Volunteer Program. The Volunteen Program provides an excellent opportunity for teens to learn about various hospital careers first-hand while giving valuable service to the hospital and its patients.

To qualify as a Volunteen at Owensboro Health one must:

  1. Be between the ages of 14 and 17 throughout the duration of the Volunteen Program (i.e. May 31, 2024 – August 2, 2024)
  2. Be able to volunteer a minimum 4-hour shift each week and have reliable transportation

Teens must have their parent or guardian sign a permission form and be willing to receive a TB skin test administered by our Employee Health nurses. Required documents will need to be turned into the Volunteer Service Team prior to starting.

The applications must be filled out and submitted online no later than Friday, May 10 2024. Once the applications have been reviewed, teens will receive written notice by mail outlining the orientation schedule. Please select the link below to apply.
