5. PIG: "Rock-a-Bye Baby" Volunteers Needed


Pediatric Interest Group (PIG) is looking for volunteers for our "Rock-a-Bye Baby" program. We need volunteers to comfort and feed babies in the neonatal intensive care unit (3rd floor, B-wing). The need for volunteers depends on how busy the service is and how much support parents of the babies need at any given time, since babies can stay in the NICU for weeks at a time or longer. Sign up is limited to 10 students on a first come first serve basis, so please only put your name down if you are interested in committing time to volunteering. We will have a brief orientation in the NICU for the volunteers once we close the sign-up. https://docs.google.com/a/temple.edu/spreadsheets/d/1IASYqQcGQiBcn8vhQg8Ij-HI7YUbehAscoTK3Lx-5HU/edit?usp=sharing
