There is no greater role than serving others. While comforting a patient or giving a helping hand to hospital team members, Baptist Health volunteers make a real difference.
We offer a wide array of opportunities at Baptist Health such as:
- Baptist Health Inpatient Units
- Main Information Desk
- Critical Care Unit
- Surgery Center
- Emergency Department
- Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
- Foundation Office and Events
