Author Elizabeth Berg simply states, “There is incredible value in being of service to others.” For those who volunteer know, they often receive more than they give. We celebrate all our Lovelace volunteers, who so graciously give of their time and talents, this Health Care Volunteer Appreciation Week and recognize their dedication to our patients, visitors and staff. Thank you for all you do!

Volunteer Feature – John Wade, 4500 Hours at Lovelace Westside Hospital
John Wade volunteers in the surgical department at Lovelace Westside Hospital. He has a long history of giving of his time and talents, volunteering in many different capacities. Being a very happy and active person, John loves being involved with his community by volunteering. He has donated more than 4500 hours to Lovelace Westside Hospital.
When John first came on board at Lovelace Westside Hospital, he volunteered a minimum of two days per week in our ER. There, he not only was able to help in the traditional volunteering duties, but without hesitation and with great eagerness, learned many more tasks where staff and patients could benefit from his assistance. Once he had mastered that department, looking for a new challenge, John moved to the pre and post-op area of the surgical department. There, he has, once again, made the position his own and made himself a highly valuable member of the surgical services team. The staff and patients of the OR have come to appreciate that each time he works, they know they will receive the “above and beyond” service for which he is so well known.
