Our Awesome Opportunities
Ambassador/Entrance Volunteer
Ambassadors and wayfinders welcome and escort patients and visitors throughout the hospital making them feel welcome and safe. You are helping to set the stage for a successful visit with us and you may be the last impression as they leave. This is a powerful role to help ensure our patients and visitors do not worry about where or how they get to their destination within our facilities. You help reduce that anxiety so they can focus on their healing journey.
Patient Enrichment Activity Volunteers
Volunteers in this role provide fun, creative outlets and positive distractions for patients to help them fight boredom, stay positive and find joy during their hospital stay. Volunteers offer books, games, puzzles and more by bringing activity carts to the inpatient units. Volunteers may also help run organized group activities such as bingo, trivia or craft projects for our patients in rehabilitation, as part of our cancer centers or for our patients in behavioral health. It is an energizing and fun role to interact in a meaningful way with patients!
Pet/Animal Assisted Therapy
Our four-legged friends and their volunteer handlers bring joy and reduce anxiety for patients, visitors and teammates through our animal assisted therapy program. Animals must be certified for animal assisted (pet) therapy and visits throughout our hospitals. They are beloved by all!
Gift Shops
Volunteers serve in various roles at our retail locations on our hospital campuses. They help to ensure we have a great product mix to serve our patients, visitors and teammates needs and assist all warmly with a smile and helpful approach. Volunteers also assist with stocking, inventory, and register needs.
Patient Facing/Patient Care Areas
We have a variety of volunteer roles focused on supporting the inpatients and our nursing teams. Our goal is to ensure every inpatient has the support they need during their stay and an excellent patient experience. Volunteers visit assigned patients regularly and use active listening skills to check in on their needs and provide emotional support. We also have volunteers who visit with activity carts to lift their spirits.
