ST. FRANCIS PLANS SUMMER TRAINING FOR JUNIOR VOLUNTEERS

The end of the school year marks the unofficial start of summer. At St. Francis Medical Center, it also signals the beginning of the hospital's summer Junior Volunteer program.

Young men and women between the ages of 14 and 17 are eligible to join the St. Francis Junior Volunteer program. A Junior Volunteer orientation session is scheduled for Tuesday, June 14, in the St. Francis Health and Education Center. Orientation activities will begin at 9 a.m.

"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," observed Pat Miller, director of the St. Francis Volunteer Services Department. "Our Junior Volunteers gain valuable insight into these career opportunities which can help them make some decisions about their own future. They also provide an important service to the Medical Center and its patients."
