MedStar St.Mary's hospital offers volunteer positions for individuals interested in donating their time and talents to be bale to meet new people, help the community, and explore healthcare careers. These volunteer programs are designed to enhance the comfort, care and happiness of the patients, families, visitors and the community overall. MedStar offers many volunteer services for both adults and juniors. These volunteer positions vary depending on individual interests, skills, talents, and availability. I was junior in High School when I volunteered and I mainly wanted to explore my opportunities in the health care environment. I believed this was a great opportunity for me to decide what I wanted to do moving forward with my higher education and future career.
I volunteered 40 hours at the MedStar St. Mary's hospital in the summer of 2018. I volunteered in the outpatient pavilion in the Women's Health Connections Office. There I effectively communicated with patients and answered phone calls at the front desk. I also organized necessary paperwork in order to prepare for appointments and meetings. Additionally, I worked alongside other team members and communicated effectively to ensure the work was completed efficiently. From this volunteer position, I've worked and improved on my communication skills as well as gaining knowledge on the etiquette of answering phone calls.
