Job Shadow Program

The job shadow itself is a one-time experience, lasting approximately 2 hours at the hospital where the participant will be able to ask questions, interact with staff, and see first hand how Sparrow Health System operates.

Prior to the job shadow experience, the job shadower must attend a mandatory hospital orientation (click here for available orientation dates here) and provide a negative TB skin test result. Sparrow Occupational Health can complete the TB skin test if necessary free of charge. Please click on the link for the TB skin test form.

To register for an orientation and job shadow experience, please complete an application. If you're under 18, please complete the application for minors and have a parent/guardian complete the consent form. The consent must either be brought to the orientation session or mailed or faxed to:
