Introduction: On March 18, 2020, in face of COVID-19 pandemic and the suspension of in-person activities by the Board of the Paulista School of Medicine (EPM), students on clinical rotations (5th and 6th grades) organized themselves to support the local community and the Hospital São Paulo complex. Method: The construction of the Volunteering-EPM was, despite fast, progressive, following as required by the Hospital São Paulo-Escola Paulista de Medicina complex. Results: After one week, Volunteering-EPM added more than 100 students and the unconditional support of professors. The quantifiable results enable an adequate supply of resources to the hospital complex. However, the biggest impact was the moment of solidarity promoted by the initiative. Discussion: Volunteering enabled unique experiences for those involved, enhancing students and professor's skill sets otherwise not developed in medical school. Emphasizing the humanitarian view of medicine improved employee and community health access and welfare. Conclusion: The speed with which actions were implemented and their impact on the community shows the ability for transformation of the volunteers. The immediate demands have been solved. In medium and long term, the project continues to respond to the new demands of the hospital. |
