Junior volunteers needed
for summer program

Ball Memorial Hospital is looking for teen volunteers to assist its Volunteer Services department.

Junior volunteer candidates must be 14 years of age or older, but not yet completed high school. All must submit an application, immunization history, two current TB skin tests completed within the last three months, and a written letter of reference from their school guidance counselor. The deadline to submit all materials to the Volunteer Services office at BMH is 12 p.m. on Friday, May 18.

Applications and a copy of the eligibility requirements are available at all high school guidance offices in Delaware and surrounding counties.

“Serving as a junior volunteer is a great way for area teens to experience a healthcare environment fi rst-hand,” said Sandra K. Hoover, director of Volunteer Services at BMH. “I want to encourage all students to learn more about this opportunity through their guidance counselor.”

Applications will be reviewed and selection will be limited to 50 participants. Students interested in job shadowing or observation programs should contact individual hospital departments for more information.
