Volunteers Are Vital to Our Community

When you volunteer at University Health, you add some light into a patient’s or a family member’s life. Whether that’s greeting visitors with a smile at the information desk, handling clerical work so our doctors can spend more time with patients, reading to hospitalized children or knitting preemie-size sweaters for newborns in the neonatal intensive care unit, our volunteers add an extra layer of compassion to our work.

Volunteers help us deliver on our promise to provide the best care possible to all of our patients. If you’re looking for a way to get involved in your community, we would love to have you join our team. See our volunteer opportunities.

For student placement and shadowing opportunities, please contact the Center for Learning Excellence at Learning.Resources@uhtx.com.
