Volunteer Services
Our volunteers are caring individuals who contribute significantly to the daily functioning of the Medical Center by supporting our staff in various departments, and assisting patients and their visiting families. If you have time, and would like to participate in a rewarding and enriching experience, consider volunteering. Last year, 230 volunteers provided over 19,213 hours of service to support Milford Regional Medical Center. Volunteers contribute their skills, experience and most of all their compassion.
Why Volunteer?
Volunteering is a win-win endeavor. As much as volunteers contribute to Milford Regional, they are quick to say they receive even more. Developing friendships, being part of a team, an opportunity to learn and gain experience, satisfaction from giving back to the community or to the hospital, and the ability to provide a useful and valued service are some of the reasons our volunteers give their time to Milford Regional.
Who volunteers at Milford Regional?
Men and women of all ages contribute to support our patients and staff. Volunteers include professionals who volunteer after work or in between jobs, retirees, moms and dads, college students, teens and even employees who enjoy giving their time and energy to different areas of our Medical Center. We make every effort to match the skills and interests of each volunteer to the needs of the medical center and to place volunteers into positions where they will feel comfortable and able to contribute. All volunteers are interviewed, CORI screened, and specifically trained for each role.
