EPISODE #13 - Aired on Wednesday June 27, 2007

This week on The Health Show we look at the many faces of volunteerism in Saskatoon Health Region. You will meet a volunteer who is Living with a Chronic Disease, and is teaching others how to cope in a program called Living with a Chronic Disease. You'll learn about a great volunteer program at Saskatoon City Hospital that provides patients and families a chance to relax and enjoy a Saturday afternoon matinee together. See how Student Volunteers are making a difference at St. Paul's Hospital. Meet the Director of Volunteer Services for Saskatoon Health Region and learn about the many, and varied ways a person can contribute by becoming a volunteer. Enjoy a good chuckle as you meet a dedicated group of volunteers who like nothing better than a chance to clown around! This week you will also find out about the Meals on Wheels program, and how this program, in its fortieth year, is still going strong.

Appearing in this week's segments are Shelley Lofstrom, Manager of Volunteer Services, Saskatoon City Hospital; Lorna Callbeck, Manager of Volunteer Services, St. Paul's Hospital; Joy Adams, Director of Volunteer Services and Spiritual Care, Saskatoon Health Region; Brenda Johnson, Coordinator of Volunteers, Idylwyld Centre; and many community members.
