Bridgeport Hospital’s Volunteer Program provides a rewarding opportunity for individuals over the age of 15. Volunteers contribute a minimum of four hours a week for at least six months. There are a variety of volunteer roles to fit individual time schedules, abilities and interests. Volunteers may work directly with patients or choose to work behind the scenes. Opportunities are available at both the Bridgeport and Milford locations as well as Park Avenue Medical Center.
Behind the Scenes: Volunteers who are placed in a behind the scenes assignment assist staff with clerical duties, deliveries and light computer work.
Customer Service: Volunteers in a customer service position assist patients and visitors in navigating throughout the hospital or providing service to customers in the hospital’s gift shops.
Patient Support: Volunteers placed in a patient support assignment provide assistance to patients and staff in clinic as well as inpatient areas. Assignments may vary between moderate or intense patient support.
Pet Therapy: We are seeking Pet Therapy teams to provide comfort and support to patients and staff. Dogs must be at least one year old and registered with an accredited pet therapy organization. Call 203-384-3330 for more information.
