Who you are:
  • You are passionate about ensuring patients have access to inclusive, nonjudgmental healthcare, including abortion services. 
  • You believe in treating every person with compassion, respect, and dignity. 
  • You are available to volunteer for on-call shifts during the day and can respond reliably when needed. 
  • You enjoy connecting with and supporting people from diverse backgrounds and life experiences. 
  • You are able to remain calm, reassuring, and clear-headed in stressful or emotional situations. 
  • You are a good communicator who knows when to offer conversation, comfort, or quiet support. 
  • You are dependable, flexible, and committed to showing up for your community when patients need you most. 
  • You bring a friendly, approachable demeanor and a nonjudgmental attitude to every interaction. 


    • What You'll Do:
  • Stay within 30 minutes of the clinic during your on-call shift. 
  • When called, drive yourself to the Roanoke Health Center, where staff will introduce you to the patient you’ll be accompanying. 
  • Ride with the patient in an Uber Health from the clinic to their home or hotel. 
  • Provide reassurance and support during the ride—keeping an eye out for any complications and calling EMS if needed. 
  • Walk the patient safely to their door (without entering their residence). 
  • Return to the clinic in the same Uber Health after the patient is settled.

If you are dependable, caring, and committed to reproductive health equity, this role gives you a unique way to stand beside your community members during a pivotal moment in their lives. Your presence can transform what could feel like a lonely journey into one of dignity, comfort, and care.
