Overall Experience
Extremely Rewarding
|
I read in the waiting room at several health departments. It is so rewarding to see the smiles on the faces of proud parents as I read with their children. It is nice to feel as though I have brightened someone's day in a small way and used a time that could have been stressful for the family to introduce them to the power of reading together.

Overall Experience
I am a PA who had the privilege of volunteering at the PBHD in Belle Glade for a short time. One thing which stood out was the kindness and concern of the HD volunteer staff. The staff returned my small bit of service with an immense amount of appreciation and gratitude. However, the best part of my experience was surely the patients themselves. The people form the Belle Glade community are among the most rewarding group of patients I have ever worked with!
