At Tarzana Regional Medical Center, our volunteers are a vital component of our healthcare team. In fact, they are such an integral part of our day-to-day activities that we consider them as important to a patient's overall health and recovery.

The type of person who chooses to volunteer his or her time to helping hospital patients is looking for more than an activity that passes the time. The volunteers at Tarzana Regional Medical Center contribute to the comfort, care and well-being of our patients and their friends and family.

The Volunteer Program is open to men, women and teens from Tarzana and surrounding areas. Each volunteer selected is oriented and trained in an area that is appropriate taking into consideration that person's unique talents and interests. While some volunteers come to Tarzana looking to have direct interaction with patients, others prefer helping behind the scenes. What's important is that the experience is both rewarding for the volunteer and helpful for patients and staff.

Tarzana Regional Medical Center is pleased to offer a volunteer program for young people. Volunteering provides an opportunity to gain valuable work experience, especially in the field of health care. Applications are accepted from high school students, 16 years or older. Due to the popularity of the program, there may be a waiting list for admission.

If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, or you would like more information, please call the Volunteer Program at 818-708-5694.
