    Description

    Nurse station volunteer

    In this role, volunteers provide administrative support to our nurses' station by buzzing people into our building during office hours, answering phones and delivering messages to the appropriate departments, and assisting patients with making phone calls. This role is pivotal in maintaining smooth operations on our respite floor. It also provides prospective volunteers with the opportunity to experience a respite unit firsthand and engage with our patients on the unit. Currently, our biggest opportunities to volunteer are weekends, especially Saturdays, but we welcome volunteers to check in periodically to see what shifts are available.

    If you are interested in this opportunity, please create an account at this address: christhouse.volunteerhub.com. Our Volunteer Manager will reach out shortly to schedule an in-person orientation and activate your account so you can sign up for shifts. You can also reach out to our Volunteer Manager at volunteers@christhouse.org for additional information.
