Our Auxilliary Volunteers

Organized in May 1953 by late administrator James G. Carr, the Wyoming Medical Center Auxiliary (formerly Memorial Hospital of Natrona County) now boasts over 200 members who donate thousands of hours of their valuable time to more than 20 areas of the hospital. Volunteers play an important role at Wyoming Medical Center, adding a special touch to the overall well-being of our patients, staff and community.

Volunteering requires no previous job experience but provides you with the opportunity to use your skills and talents and learn something new under the guidance of experienced professionals. We’re sure to find the right service area for you among our varied volunteer duties, which include delivering flowers to patients and staff, escorting patients and visitors, working in the gift shop (link), providing directions at information desks, and working on special fundraising projects, community events and health fairs.

Junior Volunteer Program
The Junior Volunteer Program offers youth ages 14 to 17 the opportunity to develop an interest in a medical field or other related careers while serving the community. Several WMC departments utilize the help of the Junior Volunteers in areas such as Pharmacy, Visitor Escort, Radiology, the Medical Unit, Rehabilitation and the Information Desk.

In applying to become a volunteer, candidates agree they will:

• Be punctual and conscientious in the fulfillment of duties and accept supervision graciously.
• Conduct themselves with dignity, courtesy and consideration.
• Avoid seeking patient information and consider all information as confidential.
• Take any issues or suggestions to the volunteer coordinator.
• Uphold the traditions and standards of WMC and the auxiliary.

The Auxiliary’s annual membership dues are:
Active membership: $5
Junior Volunteers: none
Lifetime Membership (active volunteers over the age of 80): none
Honorary Membership (individual/volunteer recognized for community service): none

Dues shall be paid by July 1 each year.
