Austin 360
I pulled into a hospital parking space here in Lakeway and felt the brilliant sun beaming down on my face. Yes, it was another beautiful day in Lakeway, and I was getting to visit patients again at Baylor Scott & White Medical Center Lakeway as one of the Good Friend Pastoral Care program volunteers.
I had just recently joined the team after moving to the area a few months earlier. I had worked before as a hospital chaplain, so I was rather familiar with the needs of patients and the staff in the hospital setting.
When a position opened up here close to my house, I jumped on the opportunity to serve as a volunteer. I checked to make sure I had all of the volunteer necessities my blue vest and my name badge.
