Brenda LaMay is Oswego County s Volunteer of the Week | Community Giving

LaMay has volunteered at several vaccination clinics as a medical evaluator. “The County Health Department’s vaccination clinics are critical operations that have strengthened the community’s effort to battle COVID-19,” said Danielle Carlone, public health sanitarian for the Oswego County Health Department. “There have been a handful of providers who have volunteered as medical evaluators since our first clinics back in January.” “The role of the medical evaluator (ME) is to oversee the medical aspect of the vaccination POD,” said Jodi Martin, RN, supervising public health nurse for the County Health Department. “In addition to answering questions from staff and patients, the ME determines if patients are good candidates for the vaccine and also helps EMS during emergency medical situations that may arise during the clinic.”

Oswego County Volunteer of the Week is Pastor Andrew Hinman

OSWEGO — Oswego County continues to honor its volunteers in the battle against COVID-19. Pastor Andrew Hinman helped the county’s health department with flow control at various vaccination clinics. “The county’s vaccination clinics are some of the critical operations that strengthened the community’s effort to fight this virus,” said Danielle Carlone, public health sanitarian for the Oswego County Health Department. “There are many jobs for people to do, and one of the most crucial positions to ensuring a smooth clinic is that of ‘flow control,’ or guiding the public through the various stages of the clinic.” Flow control volunteers help guide participants through the check-in process, get them seated and ready for their shot, and sometimes even stand outside — in often unpredictable weather conditions — to greet people and point them in the right direction.
