    Description

    Do you like to socialize with others? Do you like to keep moving? Do you support our Veterans? Then we have a great volunteer opportunity for you!

    Please support our Veterans' access to care by transporting them in wheelchairs to and from appointments, and from our inpatient units to appointments such as radiology or physical therapy.

    If you have 2-3 hours per week and want to give back to our Veterans, then e-mail vhaphivisn4voluntary@va.gov to request a volunteer application. We typically host at least one information and interview session every month.

    This is a great way to know the hospital layout, meet new people, and help our Veterans!
