What is VIM?

Volunteers in Medicine (VIM) Clinic of the Cascades is a nonprofit medical clinic serving low-income, uninsured families in Deschutes County, Oregon. We care for people who do not qualify for the Oregon Health Plan or Medicare and have no insurance of any kind.

 We do this by engaging volunteer doctors, nurses, therapists, pharmacists, interpreters and other community members who have a passion for our mission and demonstrate the "Culture of Caring" and kindness on which the VIM Clinic was founded.

 

How Can I Help?


You can help VIM by volunteering, making a donation or advocating for VIM in the community. 

 We are always looking for volunteers with a variety of skills and experience from doctors, physician's assistants and nurses to schedulers, handymen and database experts. 

 If you have an interest in improving the health of our community or even if you just want to connect with some great people, call or email us to see how you can get involved!
