At the Caris Healthcare Volunteer & Internship Informational Session, I gained an in‑depth understanding of the organization’s mission and service offerings, explored the scope and requirements of volunteer roles (such as patient support and administrative assistance) and internship tracks (including clinical observation and health informatics), and learned about the application process—eligibility criteria, timelines, and interview steps. I also identified key competencies valued by Caris Healthcare (communication, teamwork, HIPAA compliance, and basic clinical knowledge) and connected with program coordinators and current participants to discuss daily responsibilities and career development, equipping me with actionable insights to tailor my application materials and expand my professional network.
