Boomers and Hospital Volunteerism
An NYU graduate Capstone team is working with the United Hospital Fund on a project to engage Boomers in hospital volunteerism.
"The boomer generation is better educated and healthier than previous generations, and is also more culturally, economically, and socially diverse. With the first wave of boomers approaching the threshold of retirement in the next five years, many organizations hope to utilize the skills and experience that boomers possess."
To better understand what would motivate the members of the baby boomer generation to volunteer in a hospital setting they have developed an online survey.
If you're willing to take the survey, you can find it here.

Hey, man, that was one heckuva long survey & I opted out at question 19 b/c I couldn't take it anymore! Nineteen was too complicated to answer, too many choices. I myself volunteer at a local hospital and particularly enjoyed the training period as I learned a lot about how the hospital works. I read in the World Almanac that America, among all nations, has the greatest force for volunteerism. I'm proud to be a Volunteer for America, in the hospital, not in the continuing horror of the War in Iraq.
