Want to start making a difference in someone else's life? Become a Patient Support Volunteer for the Florida Cancer Specialists Foundation. Our Volunteers brighten up a cancer patient’s day by providing non-medical support while they are undergoing treatment. In the infusion area, volunteers offer a snack or beverage to a patient or caregiver, hand out warm blankets, share reading material, talk and listen, wipe down the infusion chairs and help to keep the area tidy.
Ideal candidates may be a retiree, cancer survivor or a caregiver of someone with cancer. We would also consider a college student with an interest in oncology, nursing or medicine. Shifts change based on the clinic's availability. Typically they are Mondays - Fridays 9am - 12pm or 1pm - 4pm. We ask for a minimum of 3 hours per week for at least 6 months.
Face masks must be worn at all FCS clinics and volunteers must follow the FCS vaccine policy.
