Volunteer requirements

With their contagious smiles, comforting presence and huge hearts – our volunteers make Ascension St. Francis Hospital feel like home. Due to the nature of our work there are a number of requirements that all Ascension volunteers must meet. Volunteers need to be at least 14 years of age. First you will need to complete a volunteer application, screening interview, criminal background check and reference checks.  Then you will undergo a blood draw to test for TB and immunities to MMR and varicella (chicken pox), along with a drug screen. Next you will participate in a orientation and training session. Volunteers are also required to get an annual flu shot. To maintain active volunteer status we ask that you commit to 6 months or 60 hours of service annually. Uniforms are required any time you are volunteering. These requirements ensure that volunteers are well-prepared and dedicated to supporting the mission of Ascension St. Francis Hospital. Please review the "Immunization" requirements and "General" requirements for the location you are applying for, before submitting your application. If you are interested in volunteering, please submit a volunteer application to start the process.
