Plaza volunteers help make that difference. By offering their time, our volunteers provide support, encouragement and a fresh perspective to patients and the hospital. In return, volunteers become one of our family, and they join the team of doctors, nurses, staff and others who make our patients feel at home. Plaza volunteers are capable, compassionate people 18 years of age and older. They come from many different backgrounds but have several things in common - interest and enthusiasm, dedication and dependability with a willingness to help others.
Volunteers do many things.
They offer a friendly hello or take time to sit and talk. Some help deliver fresh flowers or newspapers to patients. But mostly, they add a special personal touch at a time when it is needed most. A Plaza volunteer makes a commitment of three to four hours a week. Through volunteering, people can learn new skills, develop new interests, make new friends and understand more about how a hospital works.
