Volunteer Guidelines

The policies for volunteers/students are as follows:

  • Confidentiality is very important to all of our patients and families. Identifying information such as names and diagnoses are not to be used outside of the facility.  You must sign a confidentiality form upon your arrival to the clinic.
  • Volunteers may not be able to observe each therapy session, due to comfort levels of patients and families. Please check with treating therapist before observing a session.
  • Be prepared to interact with the patient as you may be asked to assist during the therapy session. Please dress accordingly.
  • Dress Code:  Long shorts, pants, or jeans; short-sleeve shirts or longer sleeves; no visible skin at waistline—shirts must over waistbands; tennis shoes; modest jewelry; close-fitting jackets and coats in winter; no skirts, no loose clothing
  • If questions arise, please wait until after the session to ask the therapist. For respect of patient, please to not ask questions in front them as this can be disruptive to the session.
  • Volunteers/interns (especially those with 25 hours or more of observation) will be expected to assist with cleaning and/or clerical tasks. Therapist or volunteer coordinator will assign tasks.
  • Volunteers are responsible for keeping an updated log of their own hours if needed.
