Highland,
Our friends at MercyMed are offering COVID-19 testing to our city Friday, April 3 - Monday, April 6, and they are in need of volunteers.
MercyMed's objective is to screen and test residents for COVID-19 to decrease our risk of continual community transmission. Important information is needed in order to protect others from those who are COVID positive, and ultimately decrease the burden of disease on local hospital systems.
This is a great opportunity to serve your neighbor, and they would be thankful for our support! They urgently need people to help with traffic flow, communication to patients (with no exposure), data entry, and support.
If you are interested in helping, please complete the initial information below. MercyMed will contact you directly with more details including virtual training and shift assignment. You can contact Billy at 706-326-6125 with any questions.
*Note. No one under 18 or over 60 will be allowed to volunteer. All protective gear will be provided, and we will take every measure to make sure no one is exposed to COVID-19.
Above all, let us join together in prayer over these days of testing - for the MercyMed staff, volunteers, city-wide healthcare workers, and all those who are sick and in need of healing.
If you feel that you are in need of being tested, please see the link below for instructions.
