Nurses Serving Our Neighbors is is a non-profit faith-based ministry of licensed volunteer nurses and others who advocate, navigate, and educate while we accompany our neighbors in need within the Charlotte community. We ADVOCATE by providing a compassionate and informed communication link between neighbors and their healthcare providers. We NAVIGATE the complexities of obtaining and maintaining healthcare for neighbors without adequate resources. We EDUCATE our neighbors about disease management, prevention, treatments, testing and medications, as well as available resources. We ACCOMPANY because no one should journey alone.

We are seeking Welcome and Engage volunteers who will interact with those we serve using strong communication and listening skills. These individuals do not need a medical background, yet must appreciate the value of holistic health in body, mind, and spirit. They work alongside our Nurse Advocates to connect with the individuals we serve and build trust. Welcome and Engage volunteers call our neighbors by name, welcome them, listen to their needs/story, and pray with and/or for them.
