There are so many reasons to serve! Every volunteer comes with their own unique intentions for volunteering. Our volunteers share a few of their reasons below:
Keep a healthy lifestyle
Volunteering is a good way to remain physically active, stay motivated and do something for others. Serving is known to have positive effects on mental and physical well-being.
Connect in the community
Volunteers are part of the team at Salem Health, and we need them. When serving, volunteers have opportunities to meet new people, form friendships and connect.
Give back
When we give back to our community, it benefits everyone involved. The support and care volunteers give brings another level of well-being to those who serve.
Make a difference
Whether it’s helping a patient smile on a difficult day or offering a bit of comfort to hospital visitors or staff, volunteers truly make a difference.
