Volunteer Services
At Westlake Hospital, dedicated and loyal volunteers help fulfill our mission of service to the community. Hospital volunteers have many very important assignments, from working in Same Day Surgery to being a greeter.
Our volunteers include husbands and wives, mothers and daughters, senior citizens, and many others. People of all ages find great satisfaction in volunteering their time and expertise. Many have formed lasting friendships with other volunteers, patients, and staff members.
If you are interested in volunteering, call 708-938-7829.
