Exploring a possible career in healthcare?
Check out HIP – our Healthcare Immersion Program

JOF’s Healthcare Immersion Program (HIP) is designed to provide college students with a unique, clinical immersion experience in healthcare. The program gives you the opportunity to explore various health fields while shadowing experienced providers as they treat patients.

Whether you’re interested in becoming a nurse, a physician, a physician assistant, or a physical or occupational therapist, this program allows each student the chance to witness the unique aspects of each professional role.

One of our most popular programs, HIP generally runs from early July through mid-August. Applications are due in early June.

Prerequisites for the program include an interest in a career in the medical field and one completed year of college education.

The cost of the program is $500 per student. Applicants may apply for a program scholarship based on financial need.

"This had a profound impact on my career. It increased my passion for the medical field.

After just a few short days of shadowing a nurse practitioner, I knew that I had made the correct choice in wanting to go into the field of nursing."
