Going to be an official volunteer

"As part of the volunteer process, you must attend an orientation. The next orientation will be Monday, October 7th  , 2013 from 3:00pm – 4:30pm in the Tamkin Room A  located in the Administration Building (please plan to arrive on time). IT IS MANDATORY THAT YOU RSVP TO THE ORIENTATION, THERE WILL ONLY BE ROOM FOR THE FIRST 50 RSVPs. If you do not RSVP, you will not be able to attend the orientation, which is a required step to become a volunteer."


So over the summer I was just shadow at the Casa Colina facilities. Fortunately, I was one of the first 50 to RSVP and so on October 7th I will be attending a Volunteer orientation from 3:00PM-4:30PM. Michelle and Jazmin have already attended the orientation in September and have decided not to continue to volunteer there because they weren't able to attend the second orientation for patient safety which was during school hours. They explained to me that for patient safety they would have to talk to patients and ask them certain questions. If I were to do that, it would be relevant to occupational therapy because OT involves talking to patients, pretty much socializing in that sense.
