Give the Gift of Time by Volunteering
One of the most important sources of support to New England Baptist Hospital (NEBH) is our Volunteer Team. Volunteers at New England Baptist Hospital represent people from all walks of life, including professionals, retirees, and students. They offer their time, energy, and smiles and reflect the same diversity in age, culture, and lifestyle found among our patients.
As an New England Baptist Hospital volunteer, you may find that you enjoy working in direct contact with patients, or that you prefer to be behind-the-scenes.

- Patient Access
