Guthrie Educational Programs

Shadowing/Observation Opportunities for Students
Short-term shadowing opportunities are intended to give students an inside look at careers at Guthrie Healthcare Systems both in clinical and non-clinical areas, in order to aid in career decisions. Shadowing is for observation only. No hands-on activity is permitted. Shadowers will be supervised at all times by an individual designated by the department in which they are completing their experience. 

If you are interested in a more long-term experience, please consider volunteering at GHS. We have excellent opportunities available in many departments, and students are able to sign up for the position of their choice. For information please call (570) 887-4240.
