    Description

    Errand Services at Lakeland Regional Hospital offers volunteer opportunities for individuals aged 15 and older. Volunteers play a crucial role by delivering flowers and personal belongings to patient rooms, transporting discharged patients in wheelchairs, escorting visitors to their destinations, assembling patient packets, and running errands between various departments. The service operates Monday through Friday, with hours ranging from 8 AM to 4 PM, allowing medical staff to dedicate more time to patient care. Volunteers are required to wear tan pants and closed-toe shoes, along with an LRH polo shirt, which can be purchased for $20.

    Starting in 1916 as Morrell Hospital, the facility began with 65 beds and 24 employees. Today, Lakeland Regional Health is one of the largest hospitals in Florida with 910 beds and is the second largest private employer in Polk County with nearly 8,000 employees and a medical staff of more than 1,300. It is the only hospital in Polk County to offer three hybrid operating rooms and a hybrid catheterization lab.
