Service Volunteers
¸Û°Äͼ¿â RMH Volunteers provide an extra layer of comfort and support to ¸Û°Äͼ¿â RMH patients, visitors and staff. Volunteers include working and retired men and women, college students and teenagers (age 15 and up).

- Assisting patients and visitors in the Emergency Department, Hahn
- Cancer Center, Surgical Services, Heart and Vascular Center and other care areas
