Mission Statement: (See Web Site For Updated Information)
The most rewarding reason to volunteer cannot be measured. As a volunteer, you gain valuable experience, learn new skills, make friends and meet others who share the same values and interests.

Perhaps most rewarding of all is the patient?s appreciation. A warm smile or encouraging word can mean as much to a patient as the services you provide. Scripps offers training in a variety of areas in a professional, friendly environment, to make you feel comfortable and confident.

Volunteers must be active men and women age 15 and older who are willing to make a commitment to volunteering at least three to four hours a week. Scripps volunteers include students, homemakers, part-time workers, retired persons and seniors. Volunteers may have unique opportunities to work in the emergency department, intensive care unit, or surgery.

After an initial interview and health screening, volunteers are assigned to an area of their choice and attend a site orientation. We offer training programs and continuing education to help volunteers remain efficient and effective. Some sites ask volunteers to join the hospital auxiliary. Auxiliary members donate many hours of services and have contributed to the funding of new medical equipment, scholarships and financial support for indigent patients.
