There are many opportunities to volunteer locally, including in the healthcare field. MultiCare, CHI Franciscan and Group Health all have a wide array of things you can help with, from transporting patients who need a ride to clerical work, cleaning and peer counseling. Volunteering can help you determine if health care is the right career for you. MultiCare Health System’s Volunteer Program philosophy is: the volunteer experience is more rewarding when volunteers get the opportunity to choose an assignment they have an interest in and enjoy.
