    Description

    UW Cancer Care - Aspirus Wisconsin Rapids Hospital is looking for compassionate and caring individuals to be a welcoming presence for our Cancer Center patients and visitors. Greeting patients and their family/friends as they await appointments or while receiving treatment provides comfort to those we serve. Offering refreshments of coffee, tea, water or hot chocolate to patients/visitors can relieve their stress. Keeping our infusion area prepped and ready for later patients helps the staff be more present to their current patients. All of these small, caring tasks are a welcome reprieve in a potentially stressful time - are you being called to be this caring presence? Clearance of health and background check screening will be necessary prior to being scheduled for a shift. Call today to get your packet and get your process started.
