Job Description

The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp is dedicated to providing “a different kind of healing” to seriously ill children and their families, free of charge. We are a community that celebrates the spirit of childhood, the sound of laughter and the feeling of endless possibility. The children we serve are aged 7-15 in our traditional camp program, and aged 16-18 in our Journey Programs. Our campers carry a range of diagnoses including cancer, sickle cell disease, hemophilia, immune deficiencies, and metabolic/mitochondrial disorders. Many of our campers have complex nursing needs that prevent them from participating in traditional summer camps. 

The Infirmary Support staff is an integral member of the Medical Team. Working alongside our Medical Team, this role supports the clerical and administrative functions to ensure efficient operations of the Infirmary. The Infirmary Support staff will maintain an organized, welcoming waiting area that offers games, toys and other activities to campers, work to ensure all office and medical supplies are stocked and assist with a variety of other tasks to support the Infirmary. This is a great role for a nursing student, as you will be able to spend time with our amazing nursing team!
