Learn more about our policy. 

What is the difference between the student and community volunteer programs?

Both areas of volunteering give back to the hospital in a variety of ways. Our student programs have learning components throughout the experiences and focus heavily on relationship building. Our community volunteers are a long term commitment, the average length of service in those programs is roughly 10 years! 

Can my group come in for a one time volunteer experience?

Because of the nature of the hospital, all volunteers must pass a health clearance and background check prior to volunteering which makes it extremely difficult for one time groups to come in. There are many ways to serve the hospital as a group off site, contact the volunteer coordinator for more details.

Do I pick my volunteer assignment?

Assignments are made based on hospital need and the skillset of each individual volunteer.
