Aultman Hospital offers an opportunity for 30 high school/college students to volunteer over the summer months during their school break. The program runs eight weeks and students are assigned to open volunteer positions throughout the hospital. Students will be placed on a first-come, first-served basis. Not all students are guaranteed a volunteer position.
