Shadow a Volunteer

Our organization highly values the contributions of our volunteers, who play a vital role in connecting with our patients and their families. This week, we ran the ‘Shadow a Volunteer’ program to showcase the incredible impact of our volunteers. The program highlighted the contributions of our volunteers to our patients, visitors, and staff. Senior leaders participated in 30-minute shifts and shadowed volunteers to see firsthand the impact they make every day. They worked with a volunteer in one of our service areas and gained valuable insights into how our volunteers make a positive impact every day. Thank you to everyone that participated!
