Welcome to the Episcopal Health Services, Inc. (EHS) family.
We are delighted by your interest in serving at EHS. Our patients and their loved ones, our team and board members are grateful for the gift of your time and talent.
The following information, which you will find included in this application, is needed to start your volunteer journey at EHS:
- Onboarding Checklist
- Volunteer Application
- Reference Forms
- Youth Volunteer Career Builder Worksheet (if applicable)
Individuals who are accepted will be trained, serve side-by-side with EHS team members, and receive a certificate of service upon completion. In return, EHS requires a minimum of 100 hours of service within 9 months of onboarding. This is equal to approximately 3 hours of weekly service. EHS requires all volunteers, student and interns to comply with all EHS policies and with policies of agencies or entities that regulate our services.
In some cases, failure to complete 100 hours means EHS will not supply you with a certificate of service, which is normally necessary for potential employers or education institutions.
Failure to comply with EHS policies may result in action up to and including dismissal from the program. Reckless or egregious conduct which violates EHS's Code of Conduct may result in immediate significant action.
For more information, please contact the Volunteer Services Office at (718) 869-7870 or via email at Volunteer@ehs.org.
