Volunteer Voices
"I knew I wanted to work at Brighton and volunteering was the first step.  I worked in admissions, coffee cart, family retreat, reading to patients — wherever they needed me.  I'm hoping next to move into the position of milieu tech, which is to be a liaison between patients and the nursing staff" says Jennifer Cervi, who is part of Brighton's Volunteer Re-Entry Program.  This systemic progressive volunteer work builds trust, belief and empowerment into the lives of participants and fosters community commitment and individual responsibility within the hospital volunteers program.
