Gwinnett Medical Trains Volunteer Drivers to Assist Gwinnett Cancer Patients in Need of a Ride
Every day cancer patients need a ride to treatment, but some
may not have a way to get there. Gwinnett Medical Center is assisting The
American Cancer Society’s Road to Recovery program in locating and training
volunteers here in Gwinnett to help our neighbors get to and from vital
treatment. We need your help by being a volunteer driver or a coordinator of
rides! Volunteer Drivers donate
their time and resources to take patients to treatment and back home again.
Drivers are needed during the weekdays. Driver
Coordinators help schedule the rides. Coordinators can work whenever it’s
convenient for them, one day a week, during the evening or weekends.
Gwinnett Medical Center’s Road to Recovery Information and
Training Session will be held on September 6, 2013, from 1-2 p.m. at the Gwinnett
Medical Center Resource Center, 665 Duluth Highway, Lawrenceville, GA 30046. To
RSVP, please call 770-814-0123. For more information, email judy.godfrey@cancer.org.
