 Become a St. Luke's Medical Center volunteer
The volunteers at Aurora St. Luke's Medical Center are valuable members of our health care team. By volunteering, you will
make the lives of those less fortunate more comfortable. You have the opportunity to make a positive impact on our many
patients and their families. When you share a few hours of your time each week, you are showing the community that you
care… not to mention how good you will feel knowing you've just helped make someone else better. And, you can learn
new skills and meet new friends.
And for a few hours of your time you will:
- Enrich your life by helping others
- Put your talents to work
- Make new friends
- Learn new skills and assume new roles
Volunteer opportunities
- Patient/visitor transporters. Requires physical ability to push people in wheelchairs and verbal
communication skills. Any 4-hour shift Monday through Friday from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. This is a great way to get exercise.
Some of our volunteers wear pedometers and record 4 to 7 miles in one shift!
- Guest assistant. So much more than an information desk. Volunteers are stationed at several of
our hallway intersections to offer directions to and walk with our visitors and patients. Any day, any time between
8 a.m. and 8 p.m. Requires the ability to smile and be pleasant.
- Gift Shop associate. Our gift shop is a busy and very pleasant place to help people with their
gift purchases. Requires the ability to stand and to learn to use the cash register.
