Volunteer requirements

We welcome people of all abilities and backgrounds to apply for volunteer opportunities with Asante.

Applicants must be:

• Age 18 or older to be a volunteer.

Volunteer commitment

We ask that you commit to serving for one year or 100 hours of service. We are happy to accommodate a variety of schedules; however, evening and weekend volunteer shifts are the most popular, so it may take longer to receive an assignment for those shifts.

Before you volunteer

When you are offered a volunteer position, our team will work with you to schedule some important steps before you may begin.

• Orientation.
• Health screenings.
• Fitting for a volunteer uniform and badge.

Health screening

You must complete a health screening before you begin working with patients. It includes:

• Written documentation of vaccinations for measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) (or blood draw for vaccination status confirmation).
• Skin test screening for tuberculosis (TB).
