Description
As the only charitable pharmacy in southwest Ohio, we meet one-on-one to provide individual support and assistance to each neighbor seeking medication assistance, qualifying them for services and assessing other basic needs. Working in the Charitable Pharmacy, you serve as a linkage to a very important resource, completing the intake process to provide people with access to free prescription medication. This experience will be beneficial for people interested in both healthcare administration and direct patient care professions. We serve patients in Hamilton, Clermont, Warren and Butler counties. Knowledge and interest in the healthcare field helpful but not necessary.
This position is part of the Vincentian Volunteers of Cincinnati (VVC) program, a faith-based, year-long, residential service program, providing young adults an opportunity to grow in faith, friendship and service by providing both direct and indirect service to our neighbors in need.
VVC members serve full-time in a unique work placement with the Society of St. Vincent de Paul - Cincinnati. They live together in a house provided by the program in the West End neighborhood of Cincinnati, blocks from SVDP’s Neyer Outreach Center. The program is an 11-month commitment, running late August through late July and provides members with excellent professional experience in a supportive context.
