Become part of the Avoyelles Hospital family...

We all like to picture ourselves as making a contribution. Even something that may seem insignificant can make a big impact. For a hospital patient or visitor, a smile and a few words of encouragement can make all the difference. Our volunteers help make that difference every day. By offering their valuable time, they provide support, encouragement and a fresh perspective to patients, visitors and the hospital staff. And in return, volunteers become part of our family.

Volunteers play a very important role at Avoyelles Hospital by helping us to provide high quality, cost effective healthcare to the community. They do this a number of ways:

• Augmenting and expanding the services provided by our staff.
• Providing supplemental services which contribute to patient care and satisfaction.
• Assisting non-patient care departments with clerical support.
• Helping to spread the word about the good things happening at Avoyelles Hospital within the community.

Avoyelles Hospital welcomes volunteers age 50 and over. If you would like to learn more about this exciting opportunity, please call our Volunteer Coordinator Cathy Bennett at 240-6027, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. - 4 p.m.

Join the tradition of lending your time and talents to help others.
