Supporting WVU Medicine Uniontown Hospital

A volunteer adds that special touch, an extra smile, and a willing pair of hands. 

At WVU Medicine Uniontown Hospital, our Volunteers have various opportunities to positively impact the lives of patients, visitors, and staff in various programs that focus on patient and visitor experience, hospitality, clerical support for our staff, and fundraising.

In addition to our many adult volunteers, we also are thankful for our group of dedicated young volunteers. Our Junior Volunteer Program, where participants are between the ages of 14 to 18 years, helps bring a burst of vitality to the hospital.

The Junior Volunteer Program helps to teach responsibility, fosters professional skills, and provides on-the-job experience to examine careers in the healthcare field.  Most importantly, it gives young people an opportunity to share their time and talents with others.

Whatever your interest, we'll try to match it to ours. We can help you give the greatest gift of all, You!
