MISERICORDIA HOSPITAL KINDERGARTEN TOUR VOLUNTEER

 

The Misericordia Hospital is looking for a senior to volunteer with their hospital Kindergarten Tours. The Kindergarten Tours for students aims to remove the fear for children when visiting hospitals.

  • The Kindergarten classes comes on their appointed dates and a K-Tour Volunteer leads them through specific places in the hospital:
  • The Emergency Department – where they get the opportunity to wear “Baby” stethoscopes and listen to the heartbeat of a manikin
  • Radiology where they see the X Ray machine and get to lie down in the cot as if an X Ray will be run through them; then look at X Ray plates
  • Orthopedic Department where they get the chance to put a cast on their little finger to show to their parents
  • The NICU where they see a tiny baby (if one is available)

 

The Mis is in need of some steady volunteers who can lead this throughout the school year.  Weekday morning and afternoon shifts available.

Please contact the Coordinator, Volunteer Services – Misericordia Hospital / Villa Caritas – Covenant Health if you’re interested in this position.
