Volunteer services
It is our mission to provide patients and residents with superior care and services. It would be impossible to achieve this mission without the patience and dedication of our volunteers. Our volunteers offer their time, talents and energy to help create a nurturing, healing environment for the people we serve. Join our team and be a part of the success.
Benefits of volunteering

- Broaden their experience

Volunteer Week
Every year, Covenant Health celebrates Volunteer Week, paying tribute to the more than 2,500 volunteers who work in our facilities across Alberta. Volunteers fulfill many roles – exercising their skills, interests and talents in support of our employees, patients, residents and physicians.
Here is a look at some of the work that volunteers do in our communities: Volunteers in our communities

Volunteer Services offers a wide variety of volunteer programs to meet the needs of patients and their families.
Our volunteers are an essential part of our hospital team, offering a number of programs to meet your needs and assist during your hospital stay. Volunteers bridge the gap between the services that professional and other employees provide, and provide the little "extras" that add to your well-being while you are in the hospital.
Our volunteers are from every walk of life and age group and give their time, talents and energy to help create a nurturing, healing environment every day.
