BVHS Golden Apple Volunteer Spotlight Shines on Kenton Graduate Chloe Hattery

Blanchard Valley Health System featured a Kenton graduate in its Golden Apple Volunteer Spotlight.

Chloe Hattery is a first-year biology student on a pre-physician assistant track at Ohio Northern University.

She joined the Golden Apple volunteer program to gain hands-on experience interacting with older adult patients.

Through her participation, she has developed strong patient communication skills and enhanced her bedside manner, and she finds joy in visiting patients, offering companionship, and getting to hear their life stories.

The Golden Apple volunteer program provides students with the opportunity to gain practical experience working with older adult patients during their stay at Blanchard Valley Hospital.

Volunteers are responsible for spending time with patients, engaging in various activities with them, and ensuring they feel safe and supported throughout their stay.
