Pocono Health System Relies on its Volunteers
 Pocono Health System relies daily on the generosity and commitment of its more than 400 volunteers. Ranging in age from 14 to 94, these dedicated community members commit themselves to regular daily or weekly hours.
On any given day, as many as 35 volunteers work at various times from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. helping the employees at Pocono Health System make sure patients are comfortable and have everything they need. Volunteers greet our patients and visitors as they enter our facility, assist in running errands from department to department, deliver newspapers and other reading materials to our patients, assist in caring for the spiritual needs of our patients and work behind the scenes out of their homes making baby hats and booties for the Nursery. These are just a few of the ways that these very special people help us to serve the needs of our community.
There are many departments and special projects targeted for volunteer help.
