I am a pre-medical undergraduate student interested in Emergency Medicine and Psychiatry. How can I find an (unpaid is fine) intership in the Syracuse, NY area for this summer? I do not mean links to pages that are just places to search for jobs, I'm looking for STUDENT internships that provide patient contact, not clerical work. Thanks.

Your college/university should have contacts/referrals for summer placements. Check with Student Services.

I would like to stress that I am looking for an internship around the Syracuse, NY area (NOT Rochester, NY that's only where I attend college during the academic year, I DO NOT live there during the summer.) Any medical field that includes patient contact. Thanks.

drtrek1, What school are you currently attending for your undergraduate studies? Where will you be going to medical school? How close to Syracuse, NY is the "Syracuse area"? Answers to these questions will help Researchers do a better job of getting information for you. Regards, aceresearcher

Drtrek1, I work in an ER. Why not consider something paid which offers you direct patient contact? ER techs don't make a lot of money but they get a lot of hands-on patient experience ... and a chance to interface with the ER docs. You'll meet a lot of psych patients in the ER too! A high percentage of our techs have been med or pre-med students. fsw

I currently am a sophomore at the University of Rochester. I hope to apply to medical school early admission this summer to Upstate Medical University in Syracuse, NY. By Syracuse area, I mean anywhere within a 50 mile radius of Syracuse, NY or about an hour's drive.

drtrek1, Unfortunately, most summer medical internships that involve patient contact are reserved for medical students, rather than undergrad pre-med students. I am going to post what I have found, in hopes that it may help you. A good place to start might be is the University of Rochester Medical Center's "Friends of Strong": "Friends of Strong is a dynamic volunteer organization which advances the mission of Strong Memorial Hospital... There are many jobs that need to be done–from assisting in the Family Waiting Room, working as an ambassador, organizing fundraisers, or working with patients directly... For more information about volunteer opportunities please call the Friends of Strong office at 585-275-2420 or email us at FOS@urmc.rochester.edu. http://www.stronghealth.com/about/fos/index.cfm Other departments that may be able to assist you: University of Rochester Medical Center Department of Emergency Medicine 601 Elmwood Avenue, Box 321 Rochester, New York 14642 Phone: (716) 273-4155 UR Psychiatry Department / Strong Behavioral Health 300 Crittenden Blvd Rochester, NY 14642 585-275-3535 Good Luck! aceresearcher

drtrek1, Actually, the reason I was referring you to the Univ of Rochester's ER and Psychiatry Departments was with the hope that they may have an "in" with institutions in the Syracuse area, and be able to make a phone call on your behalf, or to give you an idea where to go yourself. I spoke with the Residency Director of SUNY Upstate Medical Center's Emergency Medicine program. She conferred with the person who helps their med students set up "shadowing" and other "hands-on" experiences. Their consensus was that this sort of thing would not be available to pre-med students because of the medico-legal liability implications. However, Mary Lewis, the medical students "internship" coordinator, says you are welcome to call her at 315-464-4363. I would do so, explain your situation to her, and see if she might have any suggestions as to how you could find what you are seeking. The gist of what I have found in all of my research is that such "hands-on" contact as you are seeking is not available for non-medical students, mostly because of liability issues. Something you can try is to contact the hospitals and medical centers in the Syracuse area to see what sorts of general volunteer positions might be available. http://yp.yahoo.com/py/ypResults.py?&&city=Syracuse&state=NY&country=us&msa=8160&slt=43.048130&sln=-76.147346&cs=4&stp=y&stx=8300674 http://yp.yahoo.com/py/ypResults.py?&&city=Syracuse&state=NY&country=us&msa=8160&slt=43.048130&sln=-76.147346&cs=4&stp=y&stx=8300655 I regret that I was unable to find exactly what you needed.
