We are looking for the right volunteer match for MATERNAL CARE departments: Labor and Delivery, NICU, Post Partum Nursery, as well as other patient care departments: Med Surg, Telemetry, ER
Our volunteers support the staff. Our volunteers do not do any task that would cause them to touch a patient. Our volunteers help the staff and hopefully bring joy to the patients they encounter.
Some of the ways our volunteers can help is by acting as runners for the staff, discharging patients by wheelchairs, round patient rooms, answer phone calls at the Nurse's Station, etc......
If you are considering going into the medical field, this is a terrific way to confirm your career choice. If you are someone who is not going into the medical field but would love to help, as the right person for placement, we would WELCOME you.
