Volunteers must be at least sixteen years of age. We do have evening and weekend positions available that allow us to accommodate high school students during and after the academic year.

All volunteer positions within the Auxiliary require several hours of in house training from other Auxiliary volunteers and an indoctrination course from Volunteer Services in the Hospital that takes approximately two hours. The usual training time for the coffee or gift shops is four to six weeks consisting of four hours per week and is hands on with another volunteer.
