About our volunteers
Inova Loudoun hospital volunteers are adults and teenagers from the Northern Virginia and Loudoun County area. Each year our volunteers give thousands of hours of their time to our hospital, team members, patients and visitors. Volunteer Opportunities are available for those 16 years of age and older. Our volunteers support departments at our Lansdowne, Ashburn and Leesburg campuses. Volunteers assist team members, patients, visitors and families. Adult volunteers commit to one consistent volunteer shift per week for a minimum period of six months.
Opportunities include:
- Assisting with answering phones, helping to make copies, file, and assist with data entry and clerical support
- Interacting with visitors, patients and guests; helping with directions; answering questions, providing information and helping in our gift shop
