Types of Volunteers at Bassett

Adult Volunteers

We welcome members of our communities who are looking for an opportunity to make a difference by volunteering their time in many different ways throughout Bassett Healthcare Network.

Student Volunteers

High school, college, and graduate student volunteers who are 18 and older can gain insight and experience in a health care setting and explore career paths in health care while assisting in a variety of departments.

Junior Volunteers

High school student volunteers who are ages 14-17 and are interested in exploring healthcare careers (or are just looking to give back to the community) can gain hands-on experience while assisting in a variety of departments.

Spiritual Care Volunteers

Spiritual Care Volunteers visit with patients to provide spiritual support and guidance during their hospital stay. This additional support offers companionship, comfort, and encouragement, helping to enhance the overall patient experience.

Pet Therapy Volunteers

Pet therapy dogs and their owners make a meaningful impact everywhere they go: pet therapy can reduce distress, lower blood pressure, and relieve anxiety for our patients, families, visitors, and staff.
