Patient Escort - LVIM

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Volunteer Polk

  • 2 people are interested

Lakeland Volunteers in Medicine (LVIM) is looking for someone to direct patients through the check-in process when they arrive and escort them to the different appropriate patient areas. Additional tasks may include retrieving and delivering patient paperwork to the necessary departments, deliver messages between staff, and assist in completing paperwork or making copies.

Patient escorts give strong customer service and communication skills, are able to adapt between the changing workflow pace, interact effectively with people in a courteous and tactful manner, and have basic computer/technology skills with a willingness to learn relevant office equipment. This position does involve excessive standing and walking time. LVIM is asking for a commitment of 1 month with a minimum of one shift per week either 8am-12pm or 12pm-4pm on any day Monday through Friday.

Lakeland Volunteers in Medicine clinics are community based and provide free healthcare services to uninsured and medically underserved communities. LVIM is led by a few Watson Clinic physicians and the Watson Clinic Foundation and functions primarily by volunteers to meet the healthcare challenges of Lakeland's community in a different way.
