Volunteers: Many hands make rewarding work
Volunteers are essential to helping Cheshire Medical Center fulfill its mission. They welcome visitors, comfort patients, and families, and help with essential jobs throughout our campus. Cheshire caregivers are able to focus on healing patients thanks to the work our volunteers and staff do every day.
There are many ways you can help
At any given time, more than 100 volunteers can be found providing valuable support across the Cheshire campus. From the ED or Radiology to the PCU and Laboratory, volunteers perform important work. They also spend time on inpatient floors as patient representatives, assist birthing parents as doulas, help out in the mailroom, and provide assistance at the Information Desk.
