Most also live in the surrounding area, and many volunteer their services to civic and charitable organizations. The Auxiliary Established in 1943, the Rockville General Hospital Auxiliary provides important and lasting community service and has been a significant benefactor to the hospital. Auxilians work within all hospital departments as volunteers assisting the staff. They also hold special programs and fundraising events throughout the year. The Auxiliary also manages and staffs the hospital gift shop and a satellite gift shop at the Woodlake at Tolland nursing home.
New members are always welcome.

Our volunteers work in every hospital department, performing a number of interesting and challenging jobs, including clerical tasks, making deliveries and positions with direct patient contact. Volunteers are recognized for their services twice a year. During National Volunteer Week in April, a breakfast for volunteers is held. In November, both senior and junior volunteers are invited to an awards program.
