Volunteer Testimonials

“When patients come into the clinic with a lot of anxiety, whether it be from a fear of needles or the unknowns of the vaccine, we spend extra time trying to make them feel comfortable. When administration has been completed, patients are always grateful. This is what makes it all worthwhile.” — Jen H, FNP-C 

“The volunteers we received through My Turn- Volunteer were absolutely fabulous they did a wonderful job and were a huge help. It was a lot of fun and I think that they got a lot of value add out of it as well. Thank you, thank you, thank you for really helping us out and getting us folks and getting people signed up.” — Golden Gate Pharmacy in Novato

“I chose to volunteer with TruCheck Health because I wanted to experience public health from a frontline perspective. The team here is phenomenal and I’ve gained a lot of hands-on clinical experience while making a difference in the Covid-19 efforts. I hope that patients here can see the care and dedication that the staff put into ending the Covid-19 pandemic and do their part by getting vaccinated”.  — Nicholas Au

“Our vaccination was a drive thru site outdoors behind in the back parking lot behind the shopping center. This day was relatively warm because it was getting closer to summer. We had two very sweet patients who came for their second dose vaccination. I quickly recognized them because I did their first vaccines. They bought all our staff In-N-Out gift cards so we can buy lunch. They were extremely grateful for making their vaccination process quick, easy, and comforting. “  — Era B. Medical Assistant  

Actions You Can Take from Home

In addition to volunteering at vaccination sites, we need your help to share the facts and help your neighbors. Accurate, scientifically-based information is critical towards ending the pandemic. Help keep your community safe by sharing the facts about COVID-19 and the vaccine.

Meaningful Connections

Connect with your neighbors 1-on-1 to share information about COVID-19 and the vaccine.

Ask an Expert / Be an Expert
