FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

California College Students Establish Virtual Pre-Health Shadowing Program in Response to COVID-19
Free Online Platform Provides Virtual Shadowing Sessions for Pre-Health Students During Global Pandemic

ALAMEDA, Calif., February 6, 2020

Since launching in September, the online Virtual Shadowing program for pre-health students has reached 20,000 accounts created on the platform. 40,000 shadowing sessions have been attended with the students passing the required post-session assessment.

The online shadowing program features live streaming sessions with a variety of health professionals, including physicians, nurses, physician assistants, dentists, veterinarians, researchers, EMTs, health administrators, and more. Health professionals discuss their careers, education, extracurricular activities, admissions process, day-in-the-life, interesting cases, tips and more. Sessions are recorded and can be watched at a later time to provide options for students who need flexible scheduling. Following the session, students complete a short assessment to receive a certificate verifying their participation in the program.

“Due to COVID-19, many in-person shadowing programs and clinical opportunities have been canceled, disrupting the paths of thousands of pre-health students,” said Nina Bouzamondo-Bernstein, co-founder and CEO of Pre-Health Shadowing. “These shadowing hours are crucial for the academic and professional development that students need in order to be a successful health program applicant. Pre-Health Shadowing allows students to continue on their academic track without being delayed due to COVID restrictions. Our goal at Pre-Health Shadowing is to provide opportunities for all students through our online platform, supporting the fight to end inequity and promoting diversity in health education and health care.”

Pre-Health Shadowing launched in September 2020 and registered as a non-profit company on November 16, 2020. Since launching, more than 20,000 pre-health students have joined and over 120 professionals have agreed to participate, with almost daily sessions occurring now. Pre-Health Shadowing is a free resource that is available for students globally.
