HEALTHcare volunteering

Health volunteering makes a difference!

Whether it is an unwell parent, getting a vaccine for a child, or a bad bout of food poisoning, when we require medical attention we come to realise how important health care workers are. Now helping in the health field doesn't have to mean picking up a stethoscope. Health volunteers are essential in caring for people at their most vulnerable, and helping out the essential workers we rely on in our times  of need. With Vollie, health care volunteering can be done remotely; meaning you don't need to enter a hospital, or work during visiting hours. Enjoy the flexibility of working online, around your job and life commitments, wherever it suits you. No need to scrub up - you can make a difference from home, in your trackies. 

Use the skills that you already have to help out a general practice with their accounts, check in on the elderly over the phone, or support a dentist practice with their website. No need to get over your fear of blood when you volunteer with Vollie. Simply scroll through the active projects with awesome charities and nonprofits Vollie has partnered with, find one that you think is right for you and sign up.

Whether you have got a soft spot for oldies, your heart breaks for the AIDs crisis in Africa, or you care about educating indigenous communities against health risks they face, Vollie has teamed up with great charities and nonprofits around the world offering you the chance to work directly with health impacted individuals, or behind the scenes to keep the good work going. Health volunteering offers a real practical way to help out people in need, and make you feel like you are making a difference for those projects that stand out for you. 

Healthcare volunteers needed

If you’re a nursing or med student, being a health care volunteer offers valuable experience as you help out the vulnerable. Build up your resume while helping relieve the burden on health workers and the families that support the unwell. 

If you’re not working within the medical field, not to worry! If you have got a big heart to jump on board with projects, we welcome you to come on board with our health care volunteers.  There's plenty of work that you can do around the world too. Paperwork, data entry and social media engagement are examples of what can be done by those who have never checked someone's heart beat or taken a temperature. We look forward to hearing from you.
