Job Shadowing

Guthrie welcomes those thinking about a career in healthcare, or in another related discipline. We are pleased to offer job shadowing opportunities for these wishing to see firsthand the different types of careers on offer at Guthrie. Our observers get the opportunity to learn more from our trained and knowledgeable staff, while in a role which has no hands-on, direct contact with patients.

If you would like to find out more about job shadowing at Guthrie, please contact the Student Coordinator at ann.andrada@dektinary.com

Those who choose to job shadow at Guthrie do so for a specified period of time, in a clinical or non-clinical setting. This role does not involve a service commitment or salary, and is non-accredited. The observer is linked with a supervisor and has no responsibility for the patient. 

Those wishing to shadow should secure a preceptor/provider to shadow on their own. Students that are looking for clinical shadowing opportunities can use the Find a Provider section of the Guthrie.org website. Once you have secured a preceptor to shadow you need to place a request below, no later than 60 days in advance of your start date, so that you can be onboarded for your experience at Guthrie. 

Please note that high school students must be 16 years of age or older to shadow.
