Have a passion for healthcare or technology? Want to make a difference during COVID-19? Volunteer for patient-support with TeleHealth Access for Seniors, a 501(c)(3) non-profit which provides devices to low-income patients to use for TeleMedicine appointments. In addition to devices, this group provides free educational guides and tech-support. For this particular volunteering opportunity, we are looking for more volunteers for our patient-support, where patients call for help with their technology and setting up their devices. This is an excellent opportunity to get direct patient interaction with a 501(c)(3) non-profit. Learn more about the organization which has donated about 2500 devices at telehealthforseniors.org.

About TeleHealth Access for Seniors
Location:
2127 Alaqua Lakes Blvd, Longwood, FL 32779, US
Mission Statement
We provide seniors and low-income communities with devices, instructions, and free tech-support to connect them to their physicians via TeleHealth, friends and family using digital connectivity, and wellness tools via apps.
Description
Our non-profit collects and donates used camera enabled devices to clinics like VAs and community clinics to give patients in need and provides free educational resources like guides and tech-support to seniors, as thousands of patients lack the resources for TeleMedicine appointments and connecting with friends and family. Our non-profit has donated >800 devices, has about 175 volunteers, is working in 27 states, and has raised over $40,000 (all rapidly being updated on our impact page). 100% of our earnings go to helping patients. We've also been in a lot of press like the Associated Press.
