If you want to make a difference… North Mississippi Medical Center wants you!

Volunteers 18 years and older are welcome throughout the NMMC campus in Tupelo and in Baldwyn.
Volunteers may work in clinical areas, assist with patient and visitor comfort, and perform clerical duties. Volunteers can also spend time with patients and help with crafts.

Volunteers set their own work hours and while most work at least four hours per week, there is no minimum requirement. Some volunteers who have limited time offer to help with special projects and events.

Volunteers work in many departments and areas of NMMC. In addition to the main hospital, volunteer sites include:


Behavioral Health Center
Cancer Center
Family Medicine Residency Center
Longtown Medical Park
Wellness Center
 
Volunteer opportunities also exist at:
 
Baldwyn Nursing Facility
