Setting Boundaries

Hi- We have a student interning in the hospital's safety and security department. His dream is to work in law enforcement and is incredibly excited about this learning opportunity. Unfortunately, he is struggling with respecting boundaries and will stop by the department on his off hours, use the walkie talkie for non-emergencies and has worn his uniform home vs. leaving it in the office. We are happy that he is so determined, but also need to set some limits. Does anyone have suggestions and/or a sample behavior contract we can see? Thanks in advance!

HI Jourdan
Situations like these can be tough, however remember that Project SEARCH is to be immersed in the business culture and prepare interns for employment. Therefore, you would want to mimic what would happen if an employee acted the same. I suggest reaching out to your host business HR Department and ask for a copy of a Performance Improvement Plan. Then I would ask the safety and security department manager for suggestions on how they would implement such a plan with an employee. I may also ask HR or the department manager to sit down with you and the intern to review the plan.
