Providence volunteers display a wide variety of experiences and interests, from holding babies or helping in the emergency department, to providing pet therapy visits to patients. With a wide variety of volunteer positions to choose from, volunteers are sure to find a rewarding volunteer experience.

 
Volunteer Statistics
In 2010, Providence Alaska was privileged to have 824 wonderful volunteers who generously provided over 32,500 hours of service, with an amazing 104 of those volunteers new to us in 2010.
 
Volunteers are placed in over 50 departments serving Providence patients and their families. The Providence Alaska Medical Center's Newborn Intensive Care Unit's volunteer group "Kuddle Korps" was awarded the Golden Heart Volunteer Service Award in 2010 for their outstanding service.
 
Providence Alaska Medical Center and the Volunteer Services department would like to thank the 327 active volunteers serving Providence Alaska Medical Center and off-site facilities. We appreciate your dedication to PAMC as you provide outstanding service to patients and their families.
 
Volunteering is Good for everyone!
Many people think of volunteering as mainly a way to help and serve others.  But being a volunteer can have personal benefits too - including better health.
 
Research shows that volunteers have greater longevity, higher functional ability, lower rates of depression and less incidence of heart disease than people who don't volunteer.
 
In other words, volunteering is good medicine!
