Volunteer for The Alfred
The Volunteer Program at The Alfred provides many extra and complimentary services that supplement the care and treatment of patients while in hospital.
Volunteers add to our quality of health care by helping support patients, their families, the staff, visitors and the community within the hospital.
Your contribution makes a huge impact to the Victorian community, and becoming a volunteer is a fantastic opportunity for you to play an important part in providing vital services to our community.
