Starting May 22, the Ventura County Medical Center’s (VCMC) Emergency Room, operated by Seaside Emergency Associates, Inc. will be accompanied by new, caring faces as high school and college student volunteers begin their positions as Emergency Room Greeters.
Volunteers from various schools throughout Ventura County, including Foothill Technology High School, Ventura High School, Camarillo High School, and Ventura College, will be guiding and assisting patients, family members, and visitors while they are waiting in the department. Not only will they be interacting with patients and their families, but will be in direct communication with nurses and staff regarding inquiries of patient conditions for visitors.
This volunteer position provides not only training and knowledge to our future nurses and doctors of a Level II Trauma Emergency Room activity, but also continued involvement and efforts as a Ventura County community member.
