The SCRUBS Mentoring program allows mature students who are seriously interested in a health career to work along with nursing staff at the bedside in a mentoring role.
- Candidates apply and are processed through the Volunteer Departments at Roper Hospital and Bon Secours St. Francis Hospital.
- Processing includes an interview, application, background checks, two step TB test, immunization documentation, reference letter and attendance at a scheduled Volunteer Orientation session.
- Minimum age is 16.
- Students completing 40 hours of mentoring earn a Certificate of Completion.
- SCRUBS mentoring students are scheduled through the Roper St. Francis Healthcare DreamPool Scheduling Office for three to four hours shifts during weekday daytime hours.
- The SCRUBS Mentoring program is very popular and often operates at capacity. Applicants are interviewed and accepted when there is an opening in the program.
