Volunteer Opportunities Volunteer placements are made with consideration given to the interests, availability, and suitability of the volunteer, as well as the needs of the hospital. Volunteers working at the Information Centers, Surgical Waiting Desk, Emergency Department Waiting Area, Pastoral Care, and in the Patient Representative office fall into this group. Assignments include directing patients and visitors, acting as a go-between for patients and their families, or visiting patients. This group of volunteers includes escort volunteers and volunteers who work on the patient care units and in special treatment areas such as the GI Lab, Cancer Treatment Center, Recreational Therapy, and the Outpatient Surgery Department.

Special Events Volunteers Volunteer Services supports community, auxiliary, and Passavant Hospital Foundation programs by recruiting volunteers for special events.

The Coffee Shoppe and Reflections Gift Shop provide an invaluable service to our patients, their families, and visitors. Both shops provide volunteer opportunities during the week and on weekends and evenings.
