Our Volunteers
A feature of ROMAC which has grown greatly in recent years is the support we receive from groups now resident in Australia but previously from many of the countries from which our patients originate. Fijians, Solomon Islanders, folks from PNG, Vietnam etc are all enthusiastic supporters of ROMAC.
Everyday somewhere in Australia or New Zealand a Rotarian or a member of one of these groups performs a voluntary act for one of our ROMAC patients.
Whether it be collecting a patient on arrival from the airport, taking a patient to an appointment, visiting a patient in hospital or making an arrangement for a patient to go on a recuperation trip to the country there is always a volunteer to undertake the task in question.
The increased number of patients being treated in all our regions and districts has placed an increased burden on our Rotarian volunteers but, without exception, they are answering the call and attending to the needs of our patients.
It is true to say that without our volunteers ROMAC could not continue to operate.
