What is the mimimum age to volunteer?
Volunteers must be at least 16 to begin volunteering at University of
Colorado Hospital.
Not all volunteer positions are
available to teens due to hospital policy, but there are still many great clinical areas that enable
teens learn more about how a hospital works and about careers in healthcare while helping patients and staff. The departments that have positions for High School Students as volunteers need teens with daytime weekday availability. After hours and weekends may be available after a teen has demonstrated responsibility and reliability.
Many High Schools will give credit to students who
are volunteering with us. Please check with your own school to learn about any programs they many have.
