“Tangible culture. Patient-centered care. A vision for the future. These are just some of the incredible qualities you will encounter if you decide to intern with JPS Health Network. My internship experience exceeded my expectations at every turn. From unparalleled access to the entire Executive Leadership team to 75+ one-on-one meetings with interdepartmental change agents to clinical shadowing directly with front line staff, I felt welcomed and supported across all facets of the health system. Work assignments were made meaningful. My projects were primarily focused within the Community Health umbrella, as JPS commands 40+ outpatient primary and specialty health centers including 19 school-based clinics. But I was also privileged to gain meaningful exposure across many other departments, including an inside look into Tarrant County’s only Level I Trauma Center and only Psychiatric Emergency Center. Everywhere I went, I witnessed unwavering commitment to the patient. JPS has reaffirmed my motivations for being in healthcare and prepared me to develop into an even better servant leader.”

“Being a part of the JPS team was a phenomenal experience! From the warm and welcoming culture to the unique experiences of working for a county hospital, the JPS administrative internship helped me grow, learn, and look forward to my future career as a healthcare leader.

I had the opportunity to work on a variety of projects in numerous areas including Patient Experience, Correctional Health, Strategy, and the Access Resource Center. The executive team and former interns/fellows supported me throughout the whole experience and provided mentorship that set me up for success. The JPS culture is truly something special and I am honored to have had the chance to assist in delivering excellent care to the citizens of Tarrant County.”

This internship allowed me to work on several projects throughout various departments in the hospital including Behavioral Health, Radiology, Patient Experience, Women’s Health, and Strategic Planning. In addition to projects, there were shadowing opportunities in every single department at the hospital. The Senior Leadership Team is so accessible and willing to help you in any way you need. They are warm, inviting, and extremely encouraging. The entire team at JPS wants you to succeed in your career, and they will provide you with the platform and the tools to do so. I felt like a valued part of this organization, and that I was able to help make a positive difference in the lives of our patients.”

I was able to work on several small projects as well as one large project in many areas in the hospital, ranging from Behavioral Health, Patient Experience, Physician Engagement, Enterprise Risk Management and much more.

Additionally, I worked with several outstanding directors and managers who offered me regular mentorship in accomplishing my projects.
