Volunteering at Atrium Health Union

Volunteers play an important role in our patient’s experience and are valued members of the team at Atrium Health Union, Union West and Waxhaw. No matter how small a service provided by a volunteer may seem, it can be an integral part of the healing process for patients. A volunteer’s selfless service upholds our mission of providing health, hope and healing – for all.

Most volunteer positions are available during the weekdays, with limited evening and weekend shifts. There are a variety of opportunities to help.

Volunteer schedules vary by department needs. Shifts are generally 4 hours, once a week.
