Mercy Volunteers are needed to serve as Clinic Support Coordinators and Patient Navigators. The volunteer provides hospitality, supporting patient intake and documentation, organizing events, and various front desk responsibilities. The volunteer will also work directly with patients on health improvement, connection to other local resources, or insurance enrollment. This is a great opportunity for those interested in a gap year before medical school to gain more understanding of the healthcare system and skills in the medical field.
