Junior volunteer program

Youth around our community help out at the hospital.  Volunteering at the hospital can help young people discover their passion, serve their community and even direct their career path.

Student activities

Every year, NTMC hosts students from North Central Texas College’s nursing program and students from area high schools.  Students get a hands-on experience that only NTMC can offer.  Contact the hospital if your class is interested in a tour of our facilities.
