Volunteering Setup

A quick update: I'll be starting at San Jose Clinic next Friday, volunteering from 12:30 - 2:00p.m. This week, they are finishing up their move, so they will not be ready for volunteers yet. I'm interested to see what I'll be doing!

I emailed Samantha Sherman at the beginning of the week about volunteering again at San Jose, and she replied today that they'd be happy to have me back. I sent her my weekly availability to see which times work best for me to work. Hopefully, I will be volunteering on either Monday, Wednesday, or Friday afternoons.

Last spring, I volunteered Monday or Wednesday mornings because the morning hours are always the best times to get the most patient interaction. However, my morning classes this semester do not permit me to work the same hours.

Since I will be there in the afternoons when it is a lot slower, I expect to see more of the paperwork and everyday work away from the patients. Also, San Jose will be moving locations, so I don't doubt a lot of work will be geared toward that major event. I am incredibly excited to see the new facilities built for San Jose, a fully deserving institution.

This is just a quick update on my status quo, but I am definitely eager to get back to spending time at San Jose Clinic!
