COVID-19 Message:

To our current volunteers:

The novel Corona virus (COVID-19) has had an impact on how we need to protect our patients at this time. We have all seen many things in the media that emphasize how we need to halt the progression of this virus by quarantine.

It is our top priority to make sure that the patients in our hospitals and the people in our community stay safe and are protected from possible infection.

Therefore, effective Monday, March 16, we ask that all volunteers temporarily suspend coming in to our hospitals and stay home for everyone’s ultimate safety. We will inform you when this temporary suspension has been lifted.

Please be assured your volunteer positions will be held for you.

Events like “Bring Back the Night” and “Hats Off” will also be suspended until we have received word that they can be rescheduled. Check with your local hospital for other events that are suspended.

All of our gift shops will be temporarily closed.

Please reach out to your volunteer leader with any questions or concerns you may have. We thank you for your patience, understanding and commitment. We are so very blessed to have you as part of our HSHS family.
