Community Corner

Are you a retired health professional? Are you looking to make an impact in your community?

Doctor’s appointments can be overwhelming for anyone, but especially for a senior who may have frequent appointments or limited family members to go with them.  This is where you come in - become a volunteer Patient Navigator and you'll support seniors navigate their health appointments by helping them prepare for the appointment, accompanying them to the appointment and supporting them throughout. You'll ease the stress of appointments and help support the health and wellbeing of community members!
