We are currently recruiting volunteers like you to assist with our patient referral program!
TIME COMMITMENT: Minimum of 4 hours per week for at least 6 months
TRAINING: 12 hours
IDEAL CANDIDATES: RNs, MSNs, MPHs, Medical Students, and all applicants that are confidently familiar with medical terminology. Bilingual Spanish is a plus.
This role entails assisting our staff with extending new Patient Center Medical Home (PCMH) Referral guidelines to all Venice Family Clinic (VFC) sites by helping to close the loop between VFC, our patients, and our partner medical specialists. Volunteers would check weekly referral reports against our Electronic Health Record to ensure referral was processed, was approved, that the patient went to see the specialist, and that we received a report back from the specialist. Volunteers would also call specialist offices to request consult or test results if we have not yet received them, follow-up with patients who have not scheduled their specialty appointments and document outcome.Given the nature of this role, we are hoping to place volunteers as soon as possible.

Mission Statement
To provide quality primary health care to people in need.
Description
Over the past 50 years, Venice Family Clinic’s mission of providing quality primary health care to people in need hasn’t changed, but its scope has broadened dramatically. Today, the Clinic has about 400 staff members and more than 1,300 volunteers who serve 28,000 patients, without regard for their ability to pay or immigration status. Its programs have expanded beyond primary medical care to include dental, vision, behavioral health, exercise classes, health education, early childhood development - and street medicine for people experiencing homelessness, to ensure even the most vulnerable of its neighbors get the medical care they deserve.
Our Volunteer Services Department strives to recruit and connect the best volunteers possible with almost every department within the clinic. We work to provide support to the volunteers as well as the clinic teams whom they help. Every year, we work with over 1400 volunteers, including approximately 500 provider volunteers. Our department helps with recruiting, training, scheduling, and general upkeep of all volunteers.
