Lake Charles Memorial Hospital

Volunteer details

Lake Charles Memorial Auxiliary...it's not just volunteering. The Volunteer Auxiliary at Lake Charles Memorial Health System has provided selfless service and aid to our employees and patients alike. As a community-owned, not-for-profit health system, Memorial relies on our volunteers to make our campuses brighter, friendlier and more comforting with their helping hands, caring words and thoughtful services. Our volunteers provide many services around the hospital including running the Gift Shop, manning the front desk, keeping the waiting rooms stocked with magazines, and even preparing beautiful flower arrangements for our patients and visitors. The reward is self-fulfillment, contact with wonderful people, personal growth, and the satisfaction of giving your time and talent freely for the good of others. The Volunteer Auxiliary is open to anyone age 18 and over, of all backgrounds and abilities. For more information about volunteer opportunities at this hospital, visit the Lake Charles Memorial Hospital volunteer website.
