MEDPAL PROGRAM
How many of us have gone to a doctor's appointment with so many questions for the doctor that we've forgotten to ask them all? You wish that you had another set of eyes and ears with you. 

Ashby Village offers MedPals, who are
 specially trained volunteers, some of whom are retired medical professionals who provide support before, during and after your medical appointments. 

They can:
  • Provide transportation to and from medical appointments, door through door in most cases
  • Help formulate questions to present during the medical appointment
  • Assist with filling out forms
  • Take notes during a visit to the doctor
  • Stay with a member for a short time after an outpatient surgery

All information is kept strictly confidential to protect the privacy of the member and all notes taken belong to the member. MedPal volunteers cannot be advocates or do not give medical advice. 


Many of you may just want the ride, but, for those of you who would like more: when you call, please ask for a MedPal.

You must be a vetted volunteer to become a Medpal. If you are interested in becoming a vetted volunteer please click HERE.
