Logo for Canteen Australia

Are you a Doctor or a Nurse looking to support Young People Living with Cancer?

Canteen relies on the assistance and support of our volunteers to help us deliver our programs for young people. We can’t run our programs without our generous volunteers. Our volunteers provide support, administer medication and first aid, participate in and help run activities and most importantly have fun in the process!

Task include but are not limited to:

  • Dispensing medication as required
  • Record medication dispensed, and treatments provided
  • Administer first aid as required
  • Manage the first aid medical kits
  • Securely store medical and consent forms
  • Identify and report potential risks / hazards that may impact upon the health and safety of young people
  • Liaise with relevant health professionals if a young person or member of staff is unwell
  • Accompany unwell people to a medical centre or hospital if required
  • Supervise young people during activities
