Good Samaritan Clinic

Fort Smith, Arkansas

Fort Smith charitable clinic with a detailed application for licensed or technical professionals and numerous nonmedical support interests.

Good Samaritan Clinic provides healthcare access to uninsured and underserved people in the Arkansas River Valley. Its current two-step volunteer form accepts professional and technical credential details and asks nonmedical applicants to select from office, patient-reminder, chart, data-entry, event, courier, security, janitorial, calligraphy, computer, building-maintenance, bilingual-translation, on-call, and donor-recognition interests. The clinic's services page specifically identifies volunteer physicians and nurses. Applicants provide availability for Monday through Thursday or special events and answer the form's felony-conviction question, but the page does not publish shift hours, age rules, screening outcomes, or onboarding details.
