How to Become a Community Volunteer


Becoming a community volunteer is easy...
The first step is to attend a 90-minute orientation session. At the orientation we will explain the application process, which involves:
  • Completing an application form (pdf) and bringing it to orientation.

  • Participating in a simple health screening (similar to the process our staff members go through for patient contact) and signing a background check consent form. The screening and check are performed at no cost to you.

  • Interviewing with a Volunteer Services staff member.

  • Volunteering 10 hours in the Volunteer Services Office to gain exposure to University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics and learn about our program.

  • Selecting a placement location, where you will interview with the volunteer supervisor for a position in that department.
