Volunteer Information:
At a research and teaching facility like ours, volunteers can learn a great deal from our health care professionals. That is why they come to us from all walks of life seeking unique educational and professional experiences.
We work carefully with our volunteers to match their interests and talents with the needs that exist throughout the hospital.
We offer year-round volunteer programs for students, those exploring their career options and for anyone seeking the satisfaction that comes from helping others.
In addition to attracting volunteers from throughout the Baltimore area and beyond, many of our own University of Maryland employees apply for volunteer positions at the Medical Center to develop new skills in new areas.
Volunteer Requirements
- You must be at least 16 years of age to volunteer at UMMC.
- There is no ceiling or maximum number of hours you can work as a volunteer, but we ask for a minimum commitment of four hours a week during a regular time slot.
- To get an evaluation, certificate or letter of recommendation, you must complete at least 75 hours of volunteer service in one department.
- The 75 hours of service must be completed consecutively from the start date. Regular attendance ensures that volunteers get fully trained and get to know the staff they work with. It also enhances the volunteer experience and enables volunteers to make a real contribution to their unit or department.
