Volunteer and Make a Difference

As a not-for-profit organization, Schneck Medical Center relies on volunteers to assist staff in completing many daily tasks allowing staff to spend more time providing patient care.

We Value Your Time

Volunteers are very special people. They provide resources far more valuable than most people realize. They choose to help others by giving of themselves. Here are some of the roles volunteers participate:

  • Information desk
  • Gift Shop
  • Registration host or hostess
  • Flower delivery to patients
  • Transportation of patients within the facility
  • Health fair participation
  • Courtesy Shuttle driver
  • Chaplaincy program/Pastoral Care
  • Junior Volunteers

Our Schneck Guild volunteers are vital to our success. In addition to the services they provide to our team and our patients, they also raise money to help fund important projects at Schneck. The Schneck Gift Shop is the Guild's largest fundraising effort, and is fully staffed by Guild Volunteers. Other special events like scrub sales, book and candy sales are held at the Schneck campus. The Guild has donated funds to Schneck projects, small and large, all benefiting patients and families in our communities. Join the Schneck Guild team and make a difference!

People interested in becoming a volunteer should email the Schneck Volunteer Manager at ahatton@schneckmed.org or call (812) 522-0439 to make an appointment.

Schneck Courtesy Shuttle

Volunteers with the Schneck Guild operate the Schneck Courtesy Shuttle Monday through Friday, 8am to 4pm. If you need assistance from the parking lot, simply call (812) 523-7447 or if you are within the hospital facilities you can reach them by calling 57447 from a Schneck phone.

Don't hesitate to call! The courtesy shuttle helps patients and visitors get to and from our doors that may have physical limitations, have their hands full, or are avoiding a torrential downpour.

Do you like to help those in our community? Does becoming a shuttle driver interest you?
We are looking for volunteer drivers. This opportunity requires volunteers to commit to a regularly scheduled time or as a fill-in driver as needed due to schedule cancellations. Please email the volunteer manager at ahatton@schneckmed.org or call 812-522-0439 for more information.
