Service-Learning Program

Clapp's Nursing Center is a proud participant of Guilford County's High School Student's Service-Learning Program.  Through this program students have the opportunity to receive a Service-Learning Diploma and Exemplary Award.  Student's participate in five components: investigation, preparation & planning, action, reflection and demonstration.  This program extends beyond volunteer service of a few hours or that which is needed to complete a senior project.  Through this program students begin volunteering as early as ninth grade and have the opportunity to volunteer at several Service-Learning Program Providers to gain a variety of experiences while developing their skills and character.  The relationship the student develops with the service learning provider is one of a mentorship.  The volunteer hours can be used when applying for college.
The Service-Learning Program is a relatively new program which is being promoted in high schools.  Students are required to complete a Service-Learning Application.  To request a handbook or for more information contact: Yvonne Eason, Coordinator of Character Development and Service Learning at 370-2330.
Participants are required to complete Clapp's volunteer orientation, pass a TB test, volunteer when activity staff are scheduled, be at least 13 years old and volunteer with the activity department only.

Insurance Information

Many insurance companies have open enrollment annually.  If your loved ones insurance changes, including prescription drug plans, please inform the social workers.  There are some plans Clapp's Nursing Center does not participate in and therefore cannot accept.  Our facility will need a copy of the new insurance card. Our receptionist is happy to make a copy for you. Thank you!
