Hospital Volunteers


Volunteer opportunities at Ascension St. Vincent

If you have a desire to do meaningful work, and make a few new friends in the process, consider volunteering at an Ascension St. Vincent ministry.

Why volunteer?

When you volunteer, know that you are truly making a difference for our patients and families. Each volunteer brings a new and unique level of expertise to our volunteer care teams. Whether you are in your retirement years and want to give back to the community, a student exploring healthcare careers or you just have a desire to help others, each volunteer provides services that elevate our level of care.

What kind of volunteer opportunities are available?

The primary purpose and goal of our volunteer program is for volunteers to provide hospitality and conversation to patients, their families and visitors, while assisting the staff with non-clinical support. Responsibilities and duties may vary depending on the program you select and types of services you wish to provide. Whether providing directions to visitors, running the register at the gift shop, or spending time with a patient, our volunteers take pride in impacting the lives of others in a positive way. The time you spend in volunteer activities may vary, from a few hours a week to several hours a day. You can schedule time and volunteer at a location that is convenient for you. Special skills are not required to be a volunteer. You just need to have a willing heart and a warm smile.

How do I become part of the volunteer team?

With their contagious smiles, comforting presence and huge hearts– our volunteers make our ministries feel like home. Due to the nature of our work there are a number of requirements that all Ascension Volunteers must meet. Immunization and general requirements vary by location. If you are interested in volunteering, please review the details by location available at the link below and submit a volunteer application to start the process.

Your support impacts our patients, families and care team members directly through the area you choose.
