Students will complete a one week medical field experience in your office, shadowing you as a physician or other medical professional(s) in the workplace. Students will be involved in administrative and clinical tasks such as taking and recording patient vital signs, clerical processing, scribing, filing and updating patient records and other activities that will help them learn about and appreciate the role of a medical office staff person at every level.

Student participants will be required to have a COVID-19 vaccine and boosters (or proof of exemption) as well as an updated TB test from within a year.Eligible students include high school juniors and seniors and freshman community college and college/university students (16-22 years old with a focus on ages 16-18). A rigorous screening and selection process takes place to ensure only those students with solid performance and two recommendations will be enrolled in the program. Our partner, Reach-Out (Inland Health Professions Consortium), provides training in advance so that all students are fully prepared to join your office setting for a week.

Physicians or medical professionals interested in hosting a student for a week or more, please complete and submit the information form to Alison at aelsner@sbcms.org no later than MARCH 1, 2025.
