Summer Health Care Intern Program (SCHIP) The Summer Health Care Intern Program (SCHIP) brings students and health care employers together, giving students experience in a health care environment and employers the opportunity to become more involved in their community. Funding for this program is provided through a contract with the Office of Rural Health & Primary Care, Minnesota Department of Health. Up to half of the intern’s wages are reimbursed to participating facilities that employ students under this grant program. Students benefit from this program by obtaining valuable learning experience through hands-on activities and observation of professionals. It assists them in career decision-making while offering a summer income and the potential for immediate or long-range employment opportunities. Students interested in participating in the Summer Health Care Intern Program are encouraged to complete and submit an application along with their resume and letter of recommendation by May 1st. The number of internships available, hours, duties, and departments will be determined in mid-April. To participate in the program, employers must be willing to help students better understand a variety of health careers, duties and health-related issues through scheduled employment duties and scheduled observation opportunities. Interns are hired to perform duties in a primary department but must be provided opportunities for observation throughout the facility and exposure to multiple health care careers.
