ADMINISTRATORS OF HEALTHCARE VOLUNTEERS  

Whether you’re new to healthcare volunteer administration or a seasoned professional, you’ll find it valuable to join a network of colleagues in hospitals, clinics, long-term care and other healthcare facilities.

Healthcare can present unique challenges in working legally, safely, and effectively with volunteers:

• Regulatory and certification requirements (JCAHO, HIPAA, HCFA, etc.)
• Infection control issues
• Emergency preparedness
• Special healthcare volunteer roles

Members learn together and share expertise:

• 3 lunch/education meetings each year, tailored to volunteer management issues in a healthcare facility
• Bi-annual retreat
• Network news column in MAVA newsletter
• Informal networking opportunities

"Before I make a presentation to my Administrator about a new program or respond to a request for new services, I check what’s being done in similar facilities through my AHV network of friends and colleagues."

  Judy Takkunen, Hennepin County Medical Center , Minneapolis  

"MAVA and AHV create the perfect package for all kinds of general volunteer administration topics and programming specific to the healthcare environment where I work."
