Our volunteers are of all ages and backgrounds and assist in patient care areas, in office settings and with special events and projects. We have opportunities to fit your personal skills, interests and schedule. No one can appreciate the challenges of the cancer experience better than a cancer survivor. Volunteers in this program share their experiences and lend support to people with a similar cancer diagnosis. These volunteers tend to the special needs of cancer patients by serving as a friendly visitor or service liaison.
Volunteers greet patients when they arrive for appointments and assist patients as needed.
They also assist staff by answering the telephone and transporting patients. Computer and Office Activities - Volunteers with computer and word processing interests and skills may assist with patient education searches, databases, flyers and correspondence preparation. Clerical Assistants process paperwork, assemble materials, and perform light clerical duties. Boutique Assistance - The Cancer Center will soon open a boutique which will bring together products and services to help patients cope with the effects of their cancer treatment. Volunteers will greet and assist guests, perform retail sales duties, and schedule boutique services.
