Are you passionate about making healthcare accessible to all? Do you thrive in a supportive and caring environment? If so, we have the perfect opportunity for you!

That’s where LVIM steps in by providing access to free, high-quality, comprehensive healthcare through a community of caring volunteers.

As a Prescription Assistance Program Volunteer, you will play a crucial role in ensuring that our patients receive the medications they need to stay healthy and thrive.

  • Become part of a compassionate team dedicated to providing medical services to the community, fostering a sense of belonging and purpose.
  • Experience the deep satisfaction of making a tangible difference in the lives of others.

Responsibilities:

  • Record the receipt of medication deliveries from pharmaceutical companies accurately and efficiently to maintain an organized inventory system.
  • Sort and label prescriptions according to patient demographics, ensuring accuracy and adherence to established procedures.
  • Contact patients promptly to inform them when their medication orders are ready for pick-up, demonstrating care and professionalism in all interactions.
  • Work closely with pharmacy staff to ensure prescriptions are placed in designated areas for verification and distribution, fostering a smooth workflow and timely service delivery.

Qualifications:

  • Warm and professional telephone etiquette
  • Detail-oriented with excellent organizational skills
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team
  • Basic computer proficiency, as well as, accurate data entry skills and a willingness to learn new systems
