The Sentara Williamsburg Regional Medical Center volunteer team is comprised of adults, college students, and junior volunteers (must have completed 8th grade and be at least 14 years of age). Volunteer opportunities are available in clinical and non-clinical settings both onsite and offsite hospital locations. Our adult volunteers are offered flexible schedules to accommodate their lifestyles. The college volunteer program is structured according to college semesters. Qualifying pre-med college students are offered an opportunity to work as a scribe in our Emergency Room after providing a minimum of 25 hospital volunteer hours. The Junior Volunteer Program is structured as a two-week summer camp program with (4) two-week sessions available each summer. Each session offers 50 hours of volunteer service to the hospital. All junior volunteers must complete at least one of the (4) two-week sessions to qualify for volunteering during the school year.
The Sentara Williamsburg Regional Medical Center Auxiliary, nationally recognized recipients of the 2002 H.A.V.E. Award (Hospital Award for Volunteer Excellence) is the fundraising branch of the volunteer team. Many members volunteer in the hospital as well. Membership includes nearly 350 male and female volunteers, and is open to community members at least 17 years old. Members attend general membership meetings, assist in a variety of fundraising events (such as the July 4th Ice Cream Social, the Mistletoe Market, the Festival of Lights, the Gently Used Clothing Sale, the Gently Used Computer Sale, etc.) or assist in the hospital’s Pineapple Gift Shop fundraiser to benefit the hospital and community. Auxiliary membership applications may be obtained through the Auxiliary Office (757) 984-7192 or Volunteer Station (757) 984-7195 or (757) 984-7194.
