Volunteer Program
Bacharach Volunteer Program for College Students
All positions are filled for the summer of 2013. Applications will be accepted for the fall after August 15.
Bacharach welcomes students who are enrolled in college and need PT or OT observation hours in order to apply to graduate school. However, openings are limited, so please call to confirm that a spot is available before completing the rest of the application.
How to become a volunteer at Bacharach
- Print out and complete the 2-page application.
- Fill out the health form and bring it to your doctor. New Jersey requires a 2-step Tuberculine screen (also known as a ppd) for anyone volunteering in a healthcare setting.
You may document a screen you have had within the past 12 months in which case you just need the second screen performed by your doctor.
Your application is not complete until you have had 2 screens. The second screen may be performed between 1 and 3 weeks after the first screen.
Mail the completed application to:
