Volunteers needed for the Volunteer Health Clinic

Attention Pharmacists: Your help is needed!

As we do every August and January, AASHP is providing pharmacy services for the Volunteer Healthcare Clinic.

The months have flown by and it is time to consider volunteering for any of the Tuesdays and Thursdays in January.

Please consider starting the New Year by giving back to the community in a meaningful way. The following shifts are still available:

Thursday, January 12
	Thursday, January 21

Please email a.kelley@aashp.net to sign up.

Technicians and others interested in volunteering: please contact the Program Director, Marci Roe at 512-459-6002, ext. 205, mroe@volclinic.org.

Volunteers are needed in other areas besides the pharmacy as well, so if you have an interest, please contact Marci.

Thank you for considering donating your time this holiday season,

--- Amanda Kelley, RPh, PharmD

Additional information: The address for the Volunteer Healthcare Clinic is 4215 Medical Parkway (between 38th and 45th St). Phone: 459-6002.

AASHP staffs the Volunteer Healthcare Clinic two months out of the year - January and August.

A very competent and bilingual pharmacy technician provides data entry and counseling assistance. If you know a pharmacy student that would like to attend with you, it is a wonderful learning experience for them.

Clinic hours are from 7 pm until close (~9:30 pm). It is advisable to arrive 10-15 minutes before 7 pm so the clinic staff is assured that a pharmacist will be there.
