At Atrium Health Carolinas Rehabilitation, our goal is to restore a patient’s quality of life. As a volunteer or someone who shadows our team, you help us achieve that goal while gaining important skills and learning more about rehabilitation.
Volunteers like you come from all over our region, providing vital support for our patients and care team. Our shadowing program has helped hundreds of students learn about working in rehabilitation and determine if it's the right career path for them.
Our volunteering program is for students (age 15 and above) and adults who wish to give back to their community and learn more about rehabilitation. Common volunteer activities include:
We ask our volunteers to commit 100 hours to us each year. We also allow high school and college students to volunteer during the summers, with a fewer hours required.
We also have opportunities for specialized volunteers including:
Our shadowing program invites high school and college students to follow therapists and nurses on the job, to get a sense of what it's like to work in rehabilitation. We’ll help you learn about various areas of rehabilitation and decide if it's the right career for you. Students can shadow for a maximum of 16 hours per year.
Sign up to volunteer or shadow by filling out the forms below. We require all volunteers and shadows to take a TB test and get a flu shot during the flu season. We look forward to seeing your application!
