We lost a wonderful volunteer this month-John Murray will always be in our hearts at the Health and Hope Clinic, Inc. He was a man full of honor and integrity & knew how to love people & always look for the good in everyone he met. John used his humor & wit & loved fiercely. Gone too soon, but always in our heart. Love you, John.
From those who knew John:
"We are going to miss John so much in the triathlon, swimming and fitness community - a giving, caring, genuine person who touched so many people"
"Such a beautiful human. He truly made an impact on both our patients and volunteers. so thankful for all that he taught me at the clinic."

JULY VOLUNTEER ROCKSTAR OF THE MONTH:
SIERRA MOHR--in her own words
| |
|
I heard about Health and Hope Clinic through UWF’s mass email system. One of the advisors sent out a volunteer list and the clinic was on there. I did some research and found that it was the perfect place for me.
I started working at the front desk and I loved it! I come from an administrative career field so I enjoy doing that kind of work. Mostly, I enjoy interacting with patients and getting to know them and their stories. I now work as an MA where I get to interact with patients even more. I feel grateful to be a part of an incredible team that helps the community every day.
| |
|
Not only have I learned the many different ways to interact with patients, but also how a medical clinic runs its day-to-day appointments. I have learned the different medical terminology required for MAs, providers, and nurses. I have also learned the ins and outs of paper charts and electronic medical records. My experiences at the clinic will definitely help me with my future career as a physician assistant.
My favorite memory is my first day as an MA seeing patients by myself for the first time. I don’t come from a medical background so the opportunity to check a patient in by myself felt amazing. It was an exciting day for me. It further solidified my passion for health care and medicine.
I love interacting with different medical providers, nurses, pharmacy personnel, and other MAs. I enjoy getting to know my peers and learning from them and their experiences as medical personnel. Most of all, it is fun working together to take care of our patient’s needs.
In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my fiancé, Cody, and my pup, Bear. Together, we love fishing, shooting guns, and going to the gym. I have a passion for bodybuilding and powerlifting.
