Sally Janis has been an Alaska Regional Hospital Auxiliary volunteer since 2009. Auxiliary members volunteered almost 6,000 hours last year.
April is National Volunteer Appreciation Month, and at Alaska Regional Hospital, we are celebrating our amazing Auxiliary who serve our community.
These incredible volunteers give generously of their time and talents to hospital patients, family members, employees and guests. They donated almost 6,000 volunteer hours during 2016.
Volunteers serve in crucial roles at Alaska Regional. In almost every department, an Auxiliary member is providing a friendly face and helping hand. They are often the first person to greet patients and visitors when entering the main hospital or stopping by a health fair. They even serve outside the hospital as ambassadors in the community who promote and educate about the hospital's numerous resources and services.
We are grateful for the Auxiliary members who provide scholarships for nursing students, teddy bears for young visitors, a helping hand at community events, and being an integral part of the family at Alaska Regional.
