If you have decided to share your time to assist patients and help others at McLaren Bay Region, your next step is to complete an online application. Once your application is received, we will review current volunteer openings and determine if any align with your interests and availabilities. We will contact you if there is a match. If a match is not identified, we will keep your application on file for six months. If a match is identified, you will be contacted for an interview. We will check the references listed on your application and conduct a background check.

Once you have been cleared through this initial process, the next steps will be to complete the hospital orientation and obtain an identification badge and any special apparel or uniform required for you position. We will make sure you are oriented to our organization and receive appropriate training for your assignment.
