Transport to Treatment Driver Milroy Lodge

Milroy Lodge provides accommodation for country cancer patients and their carers who need to stay in Perth for cancer treatment. Cancer Council WA recognises the challenges faced by people living in regional and outer metropolitan areas when accessing treatment services. Through our Volunteer Transport Program, we help patients attend specified medical appointments safely and reliably.   Volunteer drivers are essential to the delivery of this service, providing safe, respectful and supportive transport for people undergoing cancer treatment.   Requirements:

• Safely transport clients to and from medical appointments • More than 5 year's driving experience; current 'C' class driver's license and good driving record • Complete the driving log and submit monthly activity data as required • Report any maintenance or repair of vehicle requirements to supervisor • To be mindful of the distress of a cancer diagnosis and use a sensitive approach • Maintain regular contact with and provide feedback to supervisor • Attend a volunteer induction and any role-related training • Participate in an annual reflection and any relevant team meetings

This is an ideal volunteer role for someone with the skills and motivation to provide supportive care to cancer patients, their families and carers. As a Cancer Council WA volunteer, you will be joining our team in the fight against cancer and making a meaningful difference in the lives of people affected by cancer.

Cancer Council WA is committed to reconciliation and equity. With a Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP), and a commitment to Closing the Gap, we encourage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander candidates to apply.
