The Minnesota Hospital Foundation (MHF) Health Care Mentorship Program brings students and health care employers together, providing students experience in a health care environment and employers the opportunity to meet future health care professionals.
In addition to hands-on experience, students will have access to networking and career counseling opportunities. This well-rounded mentorship experience aims to engage students and set them up for success in a health care career. Health care employers must pay mentees at least minimum wage and up to half of the mentee’s total hourly wages through this program will be reimbursed to the employer.
