Intermountain Healthcare's rich history of volunteerism continues today as over 3,000 volunteers donate more than one million hours of their time to Intermountain and our hospitals each year. The spirit of volunteerism thrives within our nonprofit, community-focus organization, from unpaid community volunteer trustees governing our organization, to hospital volunteers.
If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, please contact the hospital at (435) 654-2500.
Nearly every Intermountain hospital has a volunteer auxiliary that offers compassionate service to patients and raises money for vital hospital needs. Women, men and teens provide countless hours of volunteer service at the hospital each year. From answering telephones and filing papers, to greeting visitors, volunteers provide a valuable service.
