Opportunity
To provide a friendly and welcoming presence to patients, visitors, and staff. Meet and Greet Volunteers help ensure that everyone entering the hospital or clinic feels supported, informed, and valued. By offering directions, answering general queries, and providing a warm reception, volunteers play a vital role in creating a positive first impression and enhancing the overall patient experience.
What skills do I need?
This role would suit someone who is friendly, approachable, enjoys meeting new people, and takes pride in helping others feel comfortable and supported. Volunteers must provide two references (not relatives) and may need a DBS check. You will also complete a brief health and immunisation review to ensure your safety and that of patients.
