Palisades Medical Center Volunteer Services
You're just the person we've been looking for...Palisades Medical Center volunteers are diverse in their backgrounds and ages — professionals, retirees, students, newcomers and stay-at-home moms. But the one thing that all PMC volunteers have in common is their generosity. They are always eager to give of themselves to enrich the lives of our patients, staff and visitors.
We invite you to join our team of dedicated volunteers to ensure that Palisades Medical Center and the Harborage continue to provide world-class care for our community.
