Volunteers
Alice Hyde Volunteer Department
The goal of the volunteer team is to provide quality health care with dignity and compassion to those we serve.
Volunteers are an important part of the Alice Hyde team. In addition to the satisfaction of service to others, volunteers enjoy participating in the Medical Center's special events, seminars, luncheons, and friendships.
Active volunteers are eligible for courtesy discounts from our pharmacy after achieving and maintaining 100 hours of service per year. They are also eligible to receive a complimentary meal from our dining room after four hours of service on any given day and complimentary beverage after two hours. In addition, a volunteer luncheon is held each year to recognize our volunteers.
