Patient Volunteer Programme
The GSM is looking for patient volunteers from the local communities to support and contribute to the development of clinical skills of future doctors. Patient volunteers have a pivotal role in assisting students with their communication skills and non-invasive examinations.
As a volunteer, you will:
- Meet new people and make new friends
- Give something back to the community
- Contribute to the education and skills development of future doctors
- Be involved with growing and dynamic areas of heath education
- Chose a comfortable level of participation for you
The GSM will:
- Provide all appropriate training and information
- Support you in your role as a patient volunteer
- Respect and maintain confidentiality
- Recognise your contribution to the education of students
- Reimburse expenses, assist in travel and accommodate your needs
Volunteers are required for the Clinical Skills Centres on both the Wollongong and Shoalhaven Campuses. Volunteers of all ages and backgrounds, with or without specific illnesses are welcome.
