Teen Summer Parent Consent - Loma Linda University Medical Center

Teen Summer Parent Consent
Dear Parent,
Your son/daughter is interested in volunteering with Loma Linda University Health for the Teen
Summer volunteer program. We welcome enthusiastic teens of all backgrounds and abilities to
serve as volunteers.
We have two (2) 2014 summer sessions for them to choose from:
 Session A: June 16 through July 11
 Session B: July 14 through August 8
Teen volunteers may volunteer a maximum of four (4) hours per day, up to three (3) days per
week, and can select from a morning (8:30 am to 12:30 pm), or afternoon (12:30 pm to 4:30 pm)
shift.
The following steps are required for your teen to become a volunteer:
 Completed online application.
 The application will be reviewed, and upon acceptance, an email will be sent inviting your teen to
sign-up for one of our Teen Interview sessions. The following must be brought to the interview:
o Current report card or letter verifying your son/daughter’s GPA – GPA must be 3.2 or
above
o Signed Teen Summer Parent Consent
 After successful completion of the interview, an email will be sent invit ing your teen to sign-up
for one of our teen orientation sessions. Attendance with a parent or guardian at one of the
Teen Orientation sessions is mandatory.
 A $20.00 processing fee will be collected, upon check-in at orientation.
 Complete sign-up process including ID badge, TB screening and uniform.
We depend on our volunteers. We offer a unique experience and the personal satisfaction of
contributing to the welfare of our patients and guests. Volunteering can also provide an opportunity
for career exploration and service experience that can be listed on college or scholarship applications.
In order to receive the greatest benefit from volunteering, we do have a minimum requirement
of 35 hours during our summer program and the teens must be able to fully commit to one
session. Please choose your session carefully.
Our hosting departments depend on the Teens keeping their commitment to volunteer. Therefore,
attendance is important. Failure to meet your commitment or complete a session may result in
disqualification from the Teen Summer volunteer program. Exceptions will be made for illness,
appointments, and family obligations up to three (3) days of absence during the session. If your
son/daughter cannot make it to your committed shift, please contact the Volunteer Services
office at 909.558.8022 or email to [email protected].
During their volunteer time, they may be transported to various volunteer location throughout our Loma
Linda area. However, once your teen’s shift is over they must be picked up. As a parent, you will
be responsible for the transportation of your teen during the Teen Summer program. This is to
ensure their safety and your piece of mind.
Delighted to be at your
service,
LLUH Volunteer Services
