ORIENTATION SET FOR JUNIOR VOLUNTEERS AT MEDICAL CENTER

The end of the school year marks the unofficial start of summer and the beginning of St. Francis Medical Center's summer junior volunteer program.

Young men and women between the ages of 14 and 17 are eligible to join the junior volunteer program. An orientation session is scheduled June 5 at 9 a.m. in the medical center's Health and Education Centre.

"Serving as a junior volunteer is an excellent way for high school students to find out about the many types of careers available in the health care field," said Bonnie Perdue of the St. Francis Volunteer Services Office.

"Our junior volunteers gain valuable insights into these career opportunities which often helps them make some decisions about their own futures. They also provide a much-needed service to the medical center and its patients."
