Volunteers
Join a team that’s dedicated to serving with compassion
Friendly faces, a kind gesture, and helping hands can make a difference
in someone’s day. When a person or a loved one is not feeling quite
like themselves, these simple gestures can take on a world of new meaning.
Volunteering at Methodist Health System allows you to play a key role in the lives of others — our patients, our visitors, and our hospital staff. In 2017, more than 1,181 community members volunteered at Methodist, serving more than 169,395 hours!
