ROLE OF THE VOLUNTEER
The role of a Ronald McDonald House Charities of Tulsa volunteer is to provide hospitality and a caring atmosphere for families. Keep in mind that the comfort of our guests depends a lot on YOU, the volunteer. The goal of all who are associated with Ronald McDonald House Charities of Tulsa is to keep families close by making a family’s stay as easy and uncomplicated as possible. Although our residents are going through a very traumatic time in their lives, no counseling is offered by the management or volunteers of RMHC of Tulsa. These services, along with medical services, are provided to the family by area institutions and professionals. A good volunteer is always helpful as an understanding listener and must always respect the confidentiality of what is overheard or told to them. Please do not inquire of our guests why they are here. They will share their story if they want/need to.
In order to make your experience as a volunteer a good one, as well as provide the kind of atmosphere desired within the House, our only qualifications are:
- Friendliness
- Dependability
- Flexibility (must be able to deal with a variety of people and situations)
- Desire to help those in need
- Good listener
- Follow instructions
- Share skills and interests
- Understand the need for respect of others
- Respect the need for confidentiality
If you can look at this list and say, “That’s me!” – come join us and share the spirit of Ronald McDonald House Charities of Tulsa!
