I officially became a volunteer at Evergreen Hospital today. I have joined the Parent Advisory Board for the NICU. I've already been to 2 meetings and have had fun sharing our story with Ethan, talking about our experiences, and sharing ideas on a variety of subjects.
In order to become a volunteer at Evergreen, you have to meet and interview with someone in the department you are interested in, do a 3-5 hour training, have 2 TB tests done, prove your other vaccines are up to date, and get a badge. The process is very thorough, but you do get some perks for volunteering and I have already enjoyed my experiences as part of this advisory board. The other members are so nice and the staff members are awesome!

That's great! Not sure if you have any input on this but they need to get more comfortable chairs for mommies/daddies to sleep/nurse in. I can't complain to much because it's so nice our babies had their own room but it would have been nicer to have a more comfortable chair to get in and out of after having a c-section :-)
