Volunteer Tip of the Week

Please ensure we escort patients, families and visitors within the hospital to the appropriate reception area of the ward or clinic they are going to. 

Upon arrival ensure that you notify a RCH staff member who can assist them further. 

If you are the only person at the desk and you receive a call from a ward or department to escort a family our priority is that call, please pop the ‘back in 5mins’ sign on the desk and escort family.
