The Step Up Youth Program offers Vancouver Island youth (aged 15-18) the opportunity to volunteer at select Island Health hospitals and long-term care homes. This program is perfect for high school aged volunteers who are looking for an exciting and challenging volunteer role in a healthcare environment.
Youth volunteers attend weekly shifts and participate monthly in a career guest speaker series. Volunteer roles are centered on practicing Island Health’s C.A.R.E. values (Courage, Aspire, Respect, and Empathy) and positively impact the experience of patients, residents, staff and site visitors. Participants also have the opportunity to learn about careers in healthcare and develop important leadership skills.
