Volunteer Opportunity! Are you interested in supporting a cancer research initiative by volunteering at a hospital this semester? We are looking for students who would be interested in volunteer positions at Lakeshore General Hospital to collect surveys from oncology patients.
To apply or for more information, please email: nadejda.nossova.comtl@ssss.gouv.qc.ca
Where: Lakeshore General Hospital
When: Fall semester
Time commitment: Flexible, at least once a week, to be discussed based on availability.
What to expect: As a volunteer, you are expected to go to the waiting room in the oncology department and ask patients and caregivers to fill out the patient experience survey. The patients and caregiver can fill out the electronic survey on their own device or on the tablet that we’ll provide. Volunteers should be comfortable with at least conversational French and English.
Why is this important? The Ministry of Health implemented this patient experience survey in early 2024 across the entire healthcare system to evaluate patient experience, compare different CISSS/CIUSSS, monitor trends over time and report the results to the public.
