1067.0. "Hospital volunteering in Boston" by ORACLE::EYAL (Eyal Yatskan) Fri May 03 1991 19:09

  Might anybody help ?

  My girlfriend and I relocated to Boston from Jerusalem for a period of four 
to six months. She is a Pharmacist.

  We tried to find her some interesting occupation like volunteering in a big
hospital where she can work in her profession (or something close) and also be
able to learn from what a big hospital can offer (she does not have a green 
card so we did not look for a "real" job).

  We tried to ask some hospital's personnel and volunteering offices, but
things seem to move so slow, I am afraid we will be back before we get some
concrete answer.

  I was wandering if someone knows anyone who... might help us speed things 
up so she can find something to do and I can concentrate in my work here.

  Any help or advice mailed to me will be very much appreciated.

  thanks,
         Eyal.

    Project ROFEH which works out of the offices of the Bostoner Rebbe in
    Brookline always needs Hebrew translators to help Israelis who come to
    the Boston area for medical treatment. They help them communicate with
    the hospital staff, explain treatments, etc.
    
    This would give her some impoortant work to do and an opportunity to
    meet hospital professionals and meet the patients and their families
    who will also be going back to Ha Atrez.
    
    The number is (617) 734-5100.
