Avicenna Community Health Center is a health clinic that provides free health care for the uninsured and underinsured populations in Champaign-Urbana. Avicenna is currently working to re-establish its case management team, which networks with community organizations that provide free or low-cost continuing care and other services and connects those organizations/resources to Avicenna’s patients.
Avicenna is actively looking for volunteers for its case management team. Case managers will directly interact with patients during secure video appointments, and conduct assessments. They will communicate with Avicenna providers and other Avicenna staff to identify the needs of the patient, and will work to connect patients to community and government agencies.
Avicenna Community Health Center is open on Sundays from 1-4pm. Volunteers will be expected to attend online volunteer training sessions via Zoom, and are also expected to attend online consultation meetings. For the Fall 2020 semester, this opportunity will be completely online. Volunteers may reapply to volunteer during later semesters.
