Empath Health is one of the country's largest not-for-profit, hospice and home health-based healthcare organizations providing services across north central, west central and southwest Florida. Our integrated network of care includes hospice, home health, personal care, palliative care, senior primary care services, all-inclusive elder care, HIV and sexual health support services, and grief services. At Empath Health over 100+ academic partnerships demonstrate our commitment to community education and developing local talent.

We offer a variety of experiences ranging from 1-week shadowing experiences to 4-week patient care experiences. Students and their institutions may have the ability to customize duration and content.

Opportunities are anticipated to provide experiential learning through an accredited academic institution and require the student to be in a degree-seeking program relevant to the discipline of the internship. Non-students may seek volunteer opportunities with Empath Health by visiting EmpathVolunteers.org.
