Join our team
Thank you for your interest in volunteer at Hope Healthcare Services. A health crisis can be devastating—both emotionally and financially—especially for those with limited resources. Hope Healthcare Services was created to reduce the physical, emotional and financial burdens for those in our community with limited access to care.
The clinic ministry relies on the kindness and sacrifice of others, like you, who feel called to lend their time, talents and gifts to reach those less fortunate.
How to become a volunteer
We ask that you attend a short volunteer orientation at the clinic. We plan to host an orientation the second Monday each month from 6:30-7:30 pm at the clinic (call to confirm). All volunteers are asked to fill out the following a volunteer application, sign a statement of faith and confidentiality and submit to a background check (we ask for a $10 donation to cover the costs associated with the background check.) Forms are available for download using the links from this page based on licensure. If you are unable to attend an orientation, please contact the clinic to make arrangements by emailing our Executive Director John Mollaun at jpm@myhopehealth.org.

How often do volunteers serve and for how long?
Flexible 3-4 hour shifts are available anywhere from 9 am—9 pm, Monday—Thursday. Most volunteers choose to serve one shift per month, or for specific tasks or projects. We would love to help you find a place you can serve that fits both your passion and your schedule.
Do I have to be a medical or dental professional to volunteer?
No! Most of our volunteers are NOT medical and dental professionals as we need support staff to run the clinic. Everything from filing, answering phones, returning patient calls, data entry, cleaning, bringing food, etc. There are many, many ways to help out at the clinic!
Do you provide training?
Yes. All volunteers will be trained and/or shadow another volunteer.

Ah, science. Although anecdotal, I can tell you working daily with volunteers and donors, I have seen the evidence up close and personal.

It’s what researchers call a “cross-cultural universal.” That means no matter where you live, what your income, age, your culture, or even your politics, generous people are, in general, healthier and happier. The mechanisms for it are built into our...Maintaining a healthy weight can be a big deal. Aside from the other obvious health benefits like reduced risk for cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and certain cancers, there are other special benefits for pregnant women as well.
By getting and maintaining a healthy weight before and during pregnancy, you can limit the potential of pregnancy related high blood pressure and the need for having an emergency c-section.
When a mother is overweight throughout pregnancy there is also a higher chance of the baby being premature as well as becoming overweight themselves.
When a mom is underweight throughout their pregnancy it can cause major health issues for both mom and baby as well.
In general, moms should be gaining about a pound a week if they are healthy weight or underweight during their second and third trimesters. Moms who are overweight are suggested to gain about half a pound per week during the second and third trimesters.
These are of course just suggested guidelines and you should always consult your doctor during pregnancy about any changes and any expected changes in routines or health.
