volunteer luncheon 2018 (7) tileNational Volunteer Week is a time to celebrate, thank and recognize the extraordinary volunteers that share their time, talents and voices to make a meaningful difference in our community. This year we celebrated Speare Memorial Hospital’s many volunteers who support patients and staff every day with a Volunteer Appreciation luncheon on Wednesday, April 18, 2018, at the Common Man Inn & Spa in Plymouth, NH.

volunteer luncheon 2018 (41)Hospital CEO, Michelle McEwen thanked the volunteers for the role that each one plays in helping Speare Memorial Hospital provide excellent healthcare for our community every day. Student and Volunteer Services Coordinator, Chris Fenn highlighted some of the more recent volunteer efforts, sharing that in the first nine months of the Flower Program, over 400 flowers have been given to patients by volunteers. She also shared that the gift shop will be opening on May 9th. This is a new effort of the Volunteer Department and will rely completely on volunteer staffing.

Volunteers have dedicated many hours this past year as part of the Speare team. Being a patient and family-centered facility, the aim of Speare is to reach out to not only the patient but to those who are here to support that patient. Volunteers are eager to share their talents, time and compassion to help reach this goal.

During our appreciation event, the following volunteers were recognized for their hours of service:
