Columbus Regional Health Volunteer Services
Join volunteers who donate thousands of hours every year to help Columbus Regional Health Volunteer Services fulfill our mission. Volunteering gives you an opportunity to share your talents and expertise with the hospital and community, develop new skills and interest, meet new friends, and be part of a vital healthcare system.
Whether you want to work one-on-one with patients and visitors or prefer to serve the hospital behind the scenes, you will discover that volunteers really do make a difference.
