Volunteering Day 5

I forgot to blog on Sunday March 14th, so I will go ahead and blog now! Anyway, last Monday March 8th, Jon and I volunteered at the San Jose Clinic from 12:00 to 2:00 pm. We were assigned to medical records with Hermalinda and Jack. This was the 5th time Jon and I have volunteered at the clinic and it was the 5th different job that were assigned to do.

To my understanding what we were doing was to locate the files of upcoming appointments so that the doctor, nurse, or dentist would have the proper files and be able to act accordingly. As usual, Jon and I were left to our own devices and we got a hang of the medical records business very easily. It was amazingly repetitive and draining; I know that we were only finding medical records and organizing them in order of the appointment and by day of the week BUT I had no idea it would take so much stamina out of me.

Either way, Jon and I organized the appointments for a week and afterwards we were sufficiently tired that we left around 2:00. Class is starting to pick up so we try to keep it to 2 hours of service but no more.

I did not volunteer this week, nor do I plan to, because it is Spring Break! My next entry will be next week after my service!

Until Next Week,
