Request a Health Care Futures Student

Site Application set to open Mid March 2024.

The Health Care Futures Program exposes Grade 12 graduates and post-secondary students to health care fields in Prince Edward Island.

Is my health care facility eligible to apply?

Summer full-time work placements (37.5 hours per week) starting in June (11 weeks) and July (8 weeks) are offered to eligible students currently enrolled in a post-secondary health program and students who graduate Grade 12 in June and plan to pursue a health career.

The Health Care Futures program is committed to providing a well-rounded, full-time work experience to students pursuing a career in health care.  If you do not have enough work to accommodate a student full-time, please consider sharing or rotating duties and work hours among other areas within your facility.

What is the deadline to apply?

Site Application set to open Mid March 2024.

  • The name of your health care facility and worksite/department;
  • The number of students you are able to hire; and,
  • A list of duties the student(s) will be expected to perform.
