Shout Out From the Director

“I want to give a huge shout out and thank you to all our healthcare volunteers, administrative volunteers and staff who continue coming to Good Sam every day! Many of our volunteers are retirement age and at higher health risk, yet they are still coming here for our patients. The Good Sam staff has had to work extra hours and do whatever is needed of them to meet the needs of our patients, picking up for volunteers and students that we have lost. We are so grateful to each and every one. Like all of you, we do have major concerns about what the next few months will bring. With many people in our community now out of work and facing loss of income and health insurance, the demands on the Clinic may increase tremendously. We are trying to prepare for this as best we can.”

Good Samaritan managing director, Mike Singer
