High School Cooperative Education Program

Our Volunteer Resources provide an excellent learning opportunity for students interested in working in a health care setting. The COOP program is available at our three geographic sites.

All interested COOP students must be referred by a COOP teacher and will have a preliminary interview with the volunteer coordinator to discuss possible placements.

The volunteer coordinator is responsible for creating a schedule which provides the student with a variety of experiences in any of the following areas:

• Interprofessional team member on the unit
• Therapeutic Recreation Services
• Music and Memory Program
• Volunteer Resources office administration support
• Occupational therapy
• Physiotherapy
• Marketed Services (Beauty Salon)
• Alternative Augmentative Communication Clinic (Saint-Vincent Hospital only)
• Geriatric Day Hospital (Élisabeth-Bruyère Hospital only)
• Community Program (Saint-Louis Residence only)
