Job Shadowing

High School sophomores, juniors and seniors are encouraged to participate in job shadowing activities at Fort Madison Community Hospital to explore a wide range of career options. FMCH prefers to schedule several students to shadow on the same day. Usually, these days are coordinated through teachers and the FMCH Education Manager.

The average job shadowing student spends four hours with the department of their choice, enjoys a free lunch provided by FMCH, takes a tour of the hospital and finishes their day with a survey of their experience. Students are required to wear business casual attire when shadowing and complete patient confidentiality training.

If you are interested in job shadowing at Fort Madison Community Hospital, please ask your teacher to contact Laurie Lampe at 319-376-2223.

FMCH also offers the Junior Volunteer Program for career exploration. For more information on these programs, click here.
