Health Requirements and Vaccinations: All volunteers must have a tuberculin (TB) screening every year. TB tests are provided at no cost to volunteers. All volunteers are also required to receive an annual flu shot. Certain assignments require other screenings that are provided free of charge.

Minimum Age: The minimum age to participate as a MetroHealth volunteer is fifteen. However, some assignments and departments require an older minimum age.

Minimum Commitment: Most volunteer positions require a minimum commitment of thirty hours annually. Volunteers generally participate for three to four hours per week. One-time volunteer projects can be arranged for groups.

Training: Once offered a volunteer position, you will be scheduled to attend an orientation to help you learn more about MetroHealth. You will also receive training for your specific volunteer role.
