First Impressions - Greeting and Wayfinding

In this volunteer position you will have the opportunity to serve our nation's heroes by being the warm, smiling face that greets Veterans and those accompanying them as the enter and navigate through the Minneapolis VA Medical Center.

First Impressions Volunteers: welcome Veterans, their family members and visitors into the facility; assist with questions; and provide information, directions and wayfinding. These volunteers may go through a higher background check in order to have computer access to look up Veteran patient appointment information to ensure they are getting to the correct location. Volunteers are positioned at stations throughout the facility including the main entrances, elevator banks and satellite waiting rooms.

Volunteers must be able to hear and communicate clearly and have excellent customer service. Basic computer skills preferred.
