Vanderwoude tells hosp. bd. about teen volunteers Following several successful events during the past week including the elimination draw and dance at the Teeswater Community Centre (Grand winner was Dan Webster of Wingham) and a successful tea held at the home of Shirley Kaufman in Wingham, the Wingham Hospital Auxiliary met in the board room at the Wingham and District Hospital on Monday, Sept. 18 with 22 members and guests in attendance. Special speaker was Marilyn Vanderwoude, who is retiring as teen volunteer director, after many years. Taking her place will be Esther Howson. Vanderwoude outlined the many duties of teen volunteers, who must be 14 years old, in Grade 9, and willing to work three hours after school at the hospital. These girls or boys qualify for a bursary, and a meal is included if they work the three hours. Such duties as handing out water, bibs, kleenex, etc., acting as runners from floor to floor for staff members, feeding patients, taking them for walks, learning to deal with young and older patients, are just some of the tasks accomplished by these teen volunteers (formerly known as candy stripers). Often this leads them into the field of nursing or assistants in future years. As a director, Marilyn felt this position was a challenge and very rewarding. She conducted the orientation, acted as a go between teens and staff, took girls to out-of- town conferences and was there for questions or assistance if needed. The local high school helps with the promotion of this most necessary job at the hospital. Future plans were made to extend the services provided by the gift case workers, to the Emergency Department. A donation was made by the Auxiliary, to the hospital to meet future needs. Several carloads of ladies will be attending Region 2 Fall Conference in Seaforth Community Centre on Sept. 25.
