- Volunteer Requirements
-
Applicants must be 16 years or older.
To ensure the safety and well-being of everyone, flu vaccinations are required (medical exemptions possible). Please note that additional vaccinations may be necessary depending on where you volunteer. Additionally, applicants must complete a background check and a tuberculosis screening, which the hospital provides. This thorough screening process helps maintain a safe environment for volunteers and patients.
Commitment is key for AdventHealth volunteers. We require 100 hours of service, typically achieved through a four-hour shift once a week for six months. This consistent presence allows volunteers to build meaningful connections with patients and staff, enhancing the overall experience for everyone involved.
We do not accept applications from individuals in need of court-ordered community service hours or school credits.
During your volunteer shift, you will also be asked to always wear a photo ID and uniform.
To request more information about volunteering, fill out the inquiry form below, and a volunteer coordinator will contact you.
