Frequently Asked Questions
我想在Sanford Bemidji找到一份工作。志愿服务能保证我得到一份工作吗?
不，所有的雇佣都是由人力资源部安排的。
晚上或周末有机会吗?
是的，然而，机会是有限的，而且由于它们的受欢迎程度，通常很快就会被填满。请参阅“机会”部分，了解更多关于晚间和周末活动的信息。
你是否为实习医生或其他医务人员提供机会?
We do not offer these opportunities at this time.
How long does the application process take? Can I start right away?
整个申请过程通常需要三到四周的时间来完成。我们强烈鼓励申请者在他们愿意开始志愿服务的前一个月开始这个过程。
How many hours do most volunteers work?
Most volunteers start out with one, two to four hour shift a week. Volunteers who are interested in picking up additional shifts are encouraged to discuss options with their coordinator. Both flexible and regular weekly scheduling is available.
我想从事观察医生与病人合作的工作，可以吗?
Generally speaking, volunteers will not have the opportunity to observe physicians working with patients during the course of their volunteer work.
I don’t see the position I am interested in on the listing of opportunities. Can I request to volunteer in a department that isn’t listed?
Not every department has a need or the resources to accommodate volunteers. The programs listed have been developed to utilize volunteers effectively. We are not usually able to accommodate placement of volunteers in departments not listed.
I need to fulfill some community service hours. Can I do them through Sanford Bemidji? What about court-ordered community service hours?
It depends. We are not able to accept volunteers with misdemeanor or felony charges other than minor driving violations. Also, all volunteers must be able to fulfill the required six-month commitment regardless of the number of hours they need.
I only need 12 volunteer hours for a class. Do you have opportunities that would fulfill this requirement?
Unfortunately, no. We ask our volunteers for a six-month or 50-hour commitment. Check outvolunteerbemidji.org短期义工机会。
I see that I need a health screening. Is that something I will have to pay for?
No. All medical screening involved with volunteering is covered if it is done through our Employee Health Service.

- 给予家人喘息和支持。志愿者可以帮助购物或家庭维护，或让家庭照顾者有机会照顾必要的差事，并有一段时间离开家。家庭成员也很感激有一个富有同情心的朋友能理解他们正在经历的事情。
- Bereavement support programs.临终关怀志愿者可以与临终关怀的专业丧亲工作人员密切合作，从作为一个支持小组的协调人，到提供茶点和帮助客户和家庭的邮件。
- Fundraising and administrative work. A volunteer with clerical skills can serve a hospice by helping in the office with simple administrative duties. Fundraising responsibilities can range from preparing mailings or thank you letters to organizing fundraising events and contacting possible donors.
