Volunteering?
Want to know more about volunteering?
Samaritan Medical Center and Samaritan Keep Home are
always on the lookout for dedicated volunteers! The
hospital's history is rich in volunteerism and fundraising
with the help of our volunteers.
Why Volunteer?
There's no better way to give back to your community
than in a time of great need. When friends, neighbors
or relatives are sick, injured, elderly or infirm, we
like to ensure our medical and nursing staff have all
the tools they need to take great care of them! Volunteering
is one of those important tools!
By simply donating a couple of hours per week to Samaritan, you will
be providing patients and employees of Samaritan with essential services,
equipment and information!
Where Do We Need Help?
We currently have over 20 different areas in Samaritan Medical Center
where volunteers are used on a daily basis. Some examples are the
Information Desk, Patient Registration, Ambulatory Surgery, the
Emergency department, Storeroom, and the Gift Shop.
In the Samaritan Keep Home, volunteers assist with weekly
outings, activities like baking and crafts and simple things like reading
to a resident, or writing to a loved one on the resident's
behalf.
The Samaritan Auxiliary is another great place to get involved -
With fund raising activities, joining the Board of Directors, or
serving on a committee.
