Do
you enjoy being around other people and have free time to share
with others? Would you like to give something back to your community?
We would love for you to share your time and talents by volunteering
at Ephraim McDowell Fort Logan Hospital.
Our volunteers play an important role in helping us provide quality
health care to our patients. There are opportunities for every volunteer
to make a difference in someone's life. You may volunteer during
daytime, evening or weekend hours.
Before you volunteer, we will orient you to your responsibilities.
If you are interested in becoming one of our volunteers, please
call Sharon Woods at (606) 365-4768 or email swoods@emhealth.org.
