Volunteer Services

The purpose of the DeQuincy Memorial Hospital Volunteer program is to recruit, train and supervise persons in the community who wish to serve the hospital in designated areas of service.  Some of the areas of service are the Gift Shop, Refreshment Cart, taking blood pressures, Scholarships, and educational gifts. 

The Volunteers are involved in several activities which include hosting caroling at Christmas, hospital Blood Drive, Council on Aging, the annual, Quad Luncheon, the hospital Christmas Party and Doctor's Day Observance.  

Two scholarships are given to DeQuincy High School graduates who plan to pursue a health care profession.  Beginning with the 2004-05 school term, an additional two scholarships will be given to graduates of the surrounding areas, for a total of four $500 scholarships.  Some of the scholarship money making projects are the quarterly Bake Sale, Book sales, Jewelry Sale and Annual Yard Sale.  

The hospital appreciates each and every one of our volunteers.
