Adults
The Westminster Free Clinic is always interested in hearing from individuals who wish to explore volunteer opportunities with us. A number of positions are available, including service roles assisting in interacting with donors, generating community support, maintaining public relations, and performing clinic volunteer service. Our greatest volunteer need is for more Physicians, Nurse Practitioners and Nurses. The number of patients seeking assistance due to lack of insurance is increasing. With more volunteers we can open up a third mobile site in East Ventura County to address more of the need. If you are interested in working with us please contact:
Students
Over 70 local High School
students from Newbury Park, Thousand Oaks,
Moorpark, Simi Valley and Westlake High Schools
have the opportunity to volunteer and assist
directly with the delivery of patient services,
and also receive education, fieldtrips, training
in healthcare fields, as well as mentoring and job
shadowing opportunities. It is a 2-year
commitment for the student, with most staying
longer. The students enjoy helping their community
and being part of a medical team.
*Applications for the teen training program are
now closed. We will be accepting new applications
as early as March 1st, 2009.
