Job Shadowing
Spooner Health strives to offer guidance and mentorship through our job shadowing program for students interested in entering a healthcare-related field. Our mentors will help the students gain an understanding of the career and have the student follow them through their daily job duties.
High school juniors and seniors considering a healthcare field and college students studying healthcare fields are eligible to job shadow in high-demand job areas at Spooner Health. Departments available to students are nursing, imaging, laboratory, pharmacy, physical, occupational and speech therapy. Other areas may be available as requested.

Educational Opportunities
Spooner Health has been a host site for a variety of students seeking clinical rotation and post-secondary fieldwork/internship training. This training provides an opportunity for a gradual transition from the university/school setting into an actual work setting. The program requires coordination with the student’s school to determine programming objectives and needs.
To learn more about clinical rotation, internship or fieldwork programs contact Cindy Paulson at 715-939-1512 or cpaulson@spoonerhealth.com.
