How to ... become an Office Staff Volunteer

---

You will join this dedicated team of volunteers who staff the Kare Bears House during business hours. You will interact with residents in-person or by phone to provide them with the various Kare Bears services. You will also enter their service requests into our computer system.  

Residents come in to borrow medical equipment - such as canes, walkers or wheelchairs. You will assist the resident in choosing an appropriate item, then complete the loan process with them and on the computer.

Residents typically call in to request medical transportation rides, but they could also come in to the House.  You will gather all the pertinent information for the ride, and create the computer entries, which notify our drivers to sign up to handle the ride.

Office staff also answer resident questions about Kare Bears services and events - and serve as the "face" of Kare Bears to our clients
