The Dialysis unit runs between 7am-midnight, Monday to Saturday and we are looking for volunteers to help in the unit between 9am-4pm on these days. As an OPD helper, you will be helping to distribute refreshments to patients, assisting with the changeover of beds for the next intake of patients, helping to restock supplies, speaking to patients to offer distraction and companionship, as well as offering hand massage treatments to comfort patients who are in for dialysis. It is a busy outpatient department with return patients, so you must be friendly, outgoing and able to put people at ease.
