Shadowing Observation Volunteer Application

Due to the volume of requests, we are unable to arrange job shadowing contacts here in Detroit. We suggest you make contacts at school, student medical groups, Linkedin, healthcare websites, even your own personal medical provider, etc. and see if you can arrange a shadowing contact.

Please be aware shadowing policies do vary within our hospitals in the Henry Ford Health system, and not all offer opportunities. Shadowing/observing is restricted to two 8-hour days within a 12-month period per student. If this does not apply, please do not submit this form. Instead, you may explore our Volunteer program(s) for valuable experience within our hospitals or medical centers.

If you are a current medical student-MI-M4 please contact medical education at (313) 916-1601.

If you do have a medical professional or physician(s) that has agreed to work with you, we would provide the paperwork for two visits maximum (16 hours) once a contact is identified.
