For Foreign Trained Professionals

Each year, Volunteer Resources receives many volunteer applications from foreign trained professionals. While we are pleased to accept your application, volunteers at Trillium Health Centre are not permitted to take on any tasks or responsibilities that fall outside the scope of the volunteer role.  Any tasks or responsibilities that only a member of a licensed or regulated profession (physician, pharmacist, physiotherapist, laboratory technician, etc.) can legally perform are not included in any volunteer role descriptions.

Volunteering will not allow you the opportunity to practice or develop your clinical or technical skills, nor are our volunteer roles designed to be professional internship opportunities. Also, for reasons of patient privacy, Trillium Health Centre does not permit volunteers to shadow physicians or other health care professionals.
