Volunteers

Welcome to the Volunteer Department at Research Medical Center. We are excited you have taken the first step toward becoming a part of our team. As a volunteer, you will join a group of compassionate, friendly individuals dedicated to serving the patients and visitors in our community who walk through the doors of our hospital each day.

Volunteers serve in a variety of clinical and non-clinical areas. Best of all, volunteers provide a "special touch" of helpfulness and kindness to patients and their families.

New volunteer opportunities arise every day at Research Medical Center.

• Age 14 or older
• High school students need to submit one letter of recommendation from a teacher, school counselor or other school professional and a copy of most recent report card.
• Background check
• No court ordered community service
• Minimum four hours a week for three months

We have many areas that use volunteers on a daily basis, including:

• Front desk
• Pathfinder or greeter
• Patient care units
• Waiting rooms

New volunteers will attend an orientation and will receive training from a staff member in the area you are assigned.

A volunteer opportunity is waiting for you! Whatever your special talents, skills or interests are, we will match you to a rewarding task. If you have the dedication and desire to work help others, we invite you to become a part of our team.

There are a few things you will need to complete before you can start volunteering:

• Complete the application here.
• High school students need to submit one letter of recommendation from a teacher, school counselor or other school professional and a copy of most recent report card.
• Once we receive your application, we will contact you by phone or email to schedule an interview to discuss our volunteer opportunities.
• After the interview, you will be scheduled with employee health to receive a TB test and flu shot.
• Once cleared through employee health you will attend orientation, take a campus tour, learn of departmental placement and receive your uniform and badge.
• Volunteers must be 14 years or older.
• Commitment: minimum four hours a week for three months.
