Join a group of very special people. Our volunteers come from all walks of life, bringing a variety of skills and abilities with them to help improve the lives of others. Volunteers are a very important part of North Florida Regional s team of dedicated, caring health professionals. The hospital s Volunteer Program was established with the belief that every person entering the hospital has along with medical needs very personal needs that often can be met best by volunteers trained to assist the medical staff in providing superior patient care. As members of the North Florida team, volunteers give themselves a gift, too.
Studies show that people who help others are healthier, happier people.
Even if you only have four hours to spare each week, volunteering can teach you new job skills or can provide you with the strong feeling of self worth that you get from donating your time helping others. Volunteers have a wide range of important duties. They help in directing visitors to a loved one s room or delivering letters to someone who has been hospitalized. Volunteers also help by running errands, keeping a family member in the surgical waiting area informed about a relative s operation or working at the information desk. Some volunteers find they like working in the Gift Shop.
