Lee County Volunteers in Medicine (LCVIM) provides free, quality, primary healthcare services to the low-income, uninsured residents of Lee County, Florida.  LCVIM is part of the national Volunteers in Medicine (VIM) clinic network and adheres to VIM’s “Culture of Caring”.  Services are provided by a cadre of volunteer healthcare professionals such as physicians, mid-level providers, nurses, etc. and are available to those individuals who are uninsured and meet established eligibility criteria.

The VIM model promotes a “Culture of Caring” throughout the entire organization and is the heart and soul of a VIM clinic.  The “Culture of Caring” is based on an ethical standard in medicine that was once practiced and should be practiced again—How people are treated during a visit to the clinic is just as important as the medical care they receive.  The people who seek care at a VIM clinic are good people in need of help. 

There are many opportunites to work with LCVIM including front desk and receptionist positions working in the clinic as well as nursing assistants and eligibility/intake specialists.  We also offer opportunites in the administration office, such as marketing, communications, public relations, social media, volunteer management, fundraising, community relations, and health education.
