What kind of volunteer opportunities are available? Our greatest needs are for volunteers who can work Monday through Friday between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., and those who are bilingual.
Volunteer opportunities are varied and include assignments in key patient areas. Volunteers help escort patients, help in the pharmacy , and act as couriers.
