Caritas Volunteer Services offers a wide variety of volunteer programs to meet the needs of patients and their families.  The diverse array of volunteer experiences means there's something for everyone, no matter what your skills and availability might be.

 

Individuals who volunteer in this program spend their time socially interacting with residents and patients on a regular basis. Activities include reading and writing letters with patients and residents, and taking part in spiritual care, pet therapy and caring clown programs.

 

Volunteers with this program help residents and patients participate in activities like bingo, dancing, art and music.

 

Individuals volunteering in customer service work at the businesses, such as the gift shops and cafes, that are located at the three Caritas healthcare facilities.

 

Volunteers help provide residents and patients with a comfortable quality of life while they are in the care of Caritas Health Group. Volunteers help nurses by serving meal trays, feeding patients, adjusting pillows and bedding, and taking care of any other comfort needs of the patients.

 

Volunteers working in the Community Outreach program perform hospital tours for kindergarten students and work with programs such as PARTY (Prevent Alcohol and Risk-Related Trauma in Youth), Prime Time, Homecrafters and the Layette Program.
