Volunteer Opportunities

"You must give some time to your fellow man. Even if it's a little thing; do something for those who need help. Something for which you get no pay but the privilege of doing it."    --Albert Schweitzer

For Adults:Volunteer Programs at Novant Health

Success in an ever-changing healthcare environment doesn't just happen; each and every one of us shares in creating and maintaining the most remarkable patient experience. Our volunteers play a vital role in this endeavor. 

If you are a person who enjoys interacting with people and serving others, please consider volunteering at Novant Health.

Adult volunteers may:

• Visit patients to ask about non-medical needs and offer emotional support
• Serve as reception and information clerks
• Assist visitors and patients with directions
• Transport patients throughout the hospital
• Assist in the hospital gift shop

Each volunteer completes an application, has an interview with the Volunteer Services staff, attends an orientation class, completes a health screening and receives training in the designated area before he or she begins to volunteer.

To learn more about some of the volunteer opportunities waiting for you at Novant Health, call the Department of Volunteer Services at 704-384-4854. It may be one of the best investments you ever make. To download an adult volunteer application form, click the link on the right hand side of this page.
