Note particularly immunization requirements (TB and Flu Shot required).
  2. If you are interested in shadowing a Frederick Health Physician, CRNP or PA or you would like to shadow in the Operating Room, you are responsible for making this arrangement and completing the Mentor Agreement prior to submitting your application.

  4. Paperwork for a job shadow must be into Frederick Health at least one (1) week prior to the date you want to shadow.

  6. Job shadow/healthcare observations are not permitted in the Pediatrics and Obstetrics units due to the sensitive nature of cases.
