​

  • Practice good personal hygiene.

  • Volunteers should wear comfortable clothes free of tatters.

  • Shirts should be free of messaging unless related to health messaging or Open Arms Health Clinic.

  • Shoes should be comfortable. Volunteers do a lot of walking throughout the clinic.

  • Scrubs may be worn but are not required.

  • Since there are no lockers in the clinic, please limit the amount of personal items you bring to the clinic.
