LRGH Offers “Caring Student Intern” Program for Teens

A week in July or a week in August

Press release

LRGHealthcare is proud to once again offer local teens an opportunity to participate in the popular Caring Student Intern (CSI) Program.

CSI is offered to teens between the ages of 15 and 18 who have an interest in learning about careers in healthcare. Participants will learn medical skills such as taking blood pressure and respirations, first aid, and more. Students will also be introduced to various departments throughout the hospital that provide medical services.

Upon completion of the CSI program, students are eligible to volunteer on nursing floors, working directly with Licensed Nurses’ Aides (LNAs).

This year, we will offer two one-week sessions of the CSI program. Students will have the choice between July 14 through July 18, or August 4 through August 8. Both sessions will be held at Lakes Region General Hospital. Wednesday of each of these sessions will be held at Franklin Regional Hospital. CSI is open to students from all local school districts.

Space is limited. For more information or to request an application, please contact the Office of Volunteer Services at 524-3211, ext. 6720 or visit LRGH.org to download an application. All applications are due by Friday, June 1.

LRGHealthcare is a not-for-profit healthcare charitable trust representing Lakes Region General Hospital, Franklin Regional Hospital, and affiliated medical providers. LRGHealthcare’s mission is to provide quality, compassionate care and to strengthen the well-being of our community.
