Volunteer Opportunity

Posted almost 8 years ago by Lori Kelley


The Muscular Dystrophy Association in the Greater Philadelphia area runs  a one-week overnight summer camp for children ages 6-17 diagnosed with muscular dystrophy. This camp is provided free-of-charge to the children and their families.

They are in need of LPNs and/or RNs to volunteer as our medical staff. The nurses are responsible for administering medications, handling any first aid and, of course, being on hand for an emergency. There are always, at minimum, two nurses on-site as well as a physician on-call.

Summer Camp is scheduled for June 12th-18th at Variety Club Camp just outside of Norristown, PA (Montgomery County). Food and lodging is provided. We stay in air conditioned cabins with indoor bathrooms and showers.

Interested nurses  can contac Marissa Lozano, Associate Director of Family Support & Clinical Care, directly for the application. She can be reached at mlozano@mdausa.org or at 267-261-2113.
