Do you realize that volunteering impacts you, as well as those you are helping? It's true! People volunteer to feel connected with their community and to give back; some are retired or are stay-at-home parents and would like the interaction; and there are others who are learning new skills to help them in the workforce or to simply gain experience for their resumé or college entrance. Whatever the reason, you still get more from volunteering than you would expect.
Periodic in-service training, workshops and orientation will improve your skills and keep you up-to-date on general hospital procedures. Your contribution to Hendricks Regional Health's overall success is valued and appreciated each day. Your achievements will be recognized during National Volunteer Recognition Week.
Other benefits include a free flu shot and Rubella screening. In addition, volunteers receive a $6.00 credit towards a meal during their shift.
