Volunteers are an important part of the PeaceHealth family. These dedicated individuals donate their time and effort and are a vital piece of the health care we provide to our patients. While giving comfort and compassion, volunteers benefit from the knowledge that they help others each and every day. We are grateful to our volunteers for the talents and experience they bring to our patients and their families.
Sacred Heart Medical Center volunteers provide the exceptional care and understanding inherent in the mission and values of PeaceHealth. All of our volunteers are dependable, have excellent communication skills, and have friendly and postive attitudes.
We would like to invite you to become part of the PeaceHealth volunteer team. We are a close-knit group in which lasting friendships are built. Come enjoy the benefits of serving others. Apply to become a volunteer by completing the appropriate application and agreement forms below. After your forms are complete, please call the Volunteer Services Office at (541) 222-2200 to schedule an interview. During the interview, applicants discuss their skills, interests and availability. If accepted, each volunteer undergoes a background check. Volunteers then attend an orientation to introduce them to volunteer services at PeaceHealth. They receive a TB skin test and purchase a uniform shirt or vest. Our staff work to match each volunteer with a position that best meets the person's schedule and interests.
With the variety of volunteer opportunities available at PeaceHealth, you are sure to find a program that best suits you. Please let us assist you as you explore our programs and decide which best fits with your skills, interests, and hours of availability.
