Volunteers play a vital role in providing information and materials about Cancer Council's supportive care programs and directing patients to our information line, operated by dedicated nurses who can provide further information and support for cancer related questions or concerns patients may have.
Requirements:
* An outgoing, friendly and warm personality with a patient focus
* Enjoy meeting and talking with people from diverse backgrounds
* Empathy and patience
* A professional approach to the role
* Willing to participate in training
* Fluency in another language would be bonus
* Attend any required training and team meetings
* Participate in a regular feedback process and annual reflection
All successful applicants volunteering within Fiona Stanley Hospital are required to complete health screening when commencing as a volunteer within the hospital facility. There may be a requirement to obtain a blood test as part of this process. This is done through the hospital.
As with all Cancer Council volunteer roles, you will be joining our team in the fight against cancer and making a difference to the lives of people affected by cancer.
With a Reflection RAP, and a commitment to "closing the gap" we encourage Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander candidates to apply.
This service operates weekdays Monday to Friday. We are currently looking for volunteers who can provide a regular commitment to a 3-hour shift each week, either in the morning (9am-12pm) or the afternoon (12pm-3pm).
