This important service has been provided by AMS members for over four decades , and the Doctor of the Day program has enhanced the effectiveness of the Society ’ s efforts at the Capitol .
Physician volunteers are needed Monday through Friday . Please remember that Fridays may be cancelled with little notice when the legislature votes to recess on Thursday afternoon . Please provide your cell phone number on the form for quick notification . The number will not be shared .
Doctors of the Day are asked to arrive at the H . Elvin Shuffield Capitol Infirmary at 9:00 a . m ., and the infirmary usually closes around 3:30 p . m . The physician volunteers can attend legislative committee meetings and they have floor privileges in both chambers for introductions during their date of service . AMS coordinates with the Arkansas Department of Health to provide nursing coverage when the infirmary is open . A parking pass will be sent one week prior to the date of service .
