Cessnock Hospital and Community Health are seeking expressions of interest from individuals who would like to join our volunteer team and provide care and comfort to our patients and assist our staff.

We seek local community members to volunteer who are friendly and committed.  You may help in patient care and comfort, or you may have administration skills to help with collating patient information.

There are some fundraising opportunities like raffles, lolly trolley and some small events and plenty of training opportunities.

You will be talking to patients, their family and staff so good communication skills and lived experiences will help immensely. This is a unique opportunity for you to meet new people, learn more about health, work with a great team, share your life knowledge and assist patients with their health experience.

You will need 100 points of identification, a current Working with Children Check (volunteer) and will be asked to adhere to the Hunter New England Health Privacy and Code of Conduct.

For more information contact Lower Hunter Sector, Volunteer and Community Participation Coordinator P 02 4939 2200 or 0414 674044
