DOCENT (VOLUNTEER)

Paul S. Russell, MD Museum of Medical History and Innovation Boston, MA

The Paul S. Russell, MD Museum of Medical History and Innovation at Massachusetts General Hospital explores the hospital’s more than 200 years of history and the groundbreaking research happening here today. For more about the museum, visitwww.massgeneral.org/museum. Volunteer docents greet visitors, lead tours, and demonstrate pieces of technology and artifacts. Docents also have the opportunity to give tours of the hospital’s historic Ether Dome. While some of our docents are medical professionals or history buffs, no special background in history, medicine, or science is required! Docents typically have one standing two- or three-hour shift per week; must have some flexibility to cover other shifts. Must be available a minimum of six months.
