The Chaplain’s Office utilizes lay volunteers as room visitors. These volunteers make room visits Monday through Friday. The room visitors introduce spiritual care services to patient and notifies staff of any requests.
We currently have 15 volunteer chaplains, but we can always use more. The chaplains are assigned one day per month to serve the patients of Union Hospital.
We also have ICU Waiting Room lay volunteers who serve morning, afternoon, or evening shifts Sunday through Saturday. Volunteers act as a liaison between the families and the staff and patients in ICU. These volunteers commit to a minimum of three hour shifts.
For more information about the many volunteer opportunities available, please contact Volunteer Services at (812) 238-7674 and complete an on-line application. Our office is located on the lower level of Union Hospital and is staffed between 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. on weekdays.
