Since its inception, Health Advances has devoted one day per quarter for our entire staff to participate in community service. Healthcare is a career path that attracts those with a high level of compassion for others. These volunteer days offer a wonderful opportunity to give of our time and energy in a very different manner than our usual daily activities. We encourage you to learn more about some of the organizations with which we have worked.
