Emory Eastside Medical Center Auxiliary Volunteers

Auxiliary Volunteers provide a helping hand and a caring heart at Emory Eastside Medical Center.  A friendly smile - an encouraging word - a sympathetic ear to patients and their families can make a world of difference. The volunteers will tell you they receive much more than they give in personal gratification and in a sense of fulfillment.

Volunteering at Emory Eastside Medical Center is an excellent way to be of service to patients, family members and visitors, physicians, staff, and to your fellow volunteer. It also offers you the opportunity to develop and grow while meeting new people and making new friends. High school students (minimum age 16 at the time of registration) can spend the summer helping others while deciding if a medical career is right for them.  Registration for the Volunteen Program is only taken January 1-3 each year by leaving name and phone number on the Auxiliary Office voice mail, 770-736-2463.  There is a limit of 25 teens for the 10-week session and registration during above dates is mandatory.  .
