Making a Difference, One Helping Hand at a Time

At Ellenville Regional Hospital, our volunteers are a vital part of our healthcare team. Their time, energy, and compassion enrich the hospital experience for patients, visitors, and staff alike. Whether assisting behind the scenes, supporting patient care, or keeping departments running smoothly, our volunteers play an essential role in supporting our mission of caring and service.

We offer a variety of volunteer opportunities to match different interests, skills, and schedules. Every contribution—no matter how big or small—makes a meaningful impact.

 

Volunteer Roles Include:

  • Gift Shop Volunteers
    Help manage daily operations of the hospital gift shop, assist customers, and keep the space inviting and organized.

  • Sub Acute Rehab / Swing Bed Program Volunteers
    Distribute newspapers and magazines, offer companionship, and assist with small activities to brighten the day for recovering patients.
