Volunteer With Us
The MUH Volunteer Service has had over 50 members of the community participating in the scheme since its inception in March 2012, with volunteers ensuring patients and visitors have a warm, friendly welcome and are assisted with directions and any information needed.
Our Meet and Greet volunteers are members of the public from various walks of life - what they offer is a willingness to help others accessing acute hospital services. Please consider joining our volunteer team and help us:
Catherine Donohoe, Hospital Manager said, “Patients are at the heart of everything we do and this is most true for our volunteers who demonstrate this in the care, laughs and smiles that they exchange with our patients. Our volunteers bring the energy and enthusiasm of members of the local community who want to give something back, into the hospital.”
If you wish to volunteer with us, you can discuss with Brendan Coyne, our Lead Volunteer on 086 155 0035 and/or please complete this form and send back to the Patient Engagement & Partnership Improvement Coordinator, Quality and Patient Safety Department, Mayo University Hospital, Castlebar, Co.
