HOCO Inpatient Unit (IPU) Volunteers perform a limited number of non-medical tasks that contribute to comfort for the patient and the patient's family. Volunteers also greet and direct visitors, assemble admission packets, maintain all unit paperwork supplies, maintain kitchen and family areas, and unpack medical supply boxes in appropriate location when delivered. Volunteer must serve at least one 3-hour shift per week, weekday and weekend opportunities available. All volunteerism takes please at The Ohio State University Medical Center.

To volunteer, join the Retired & Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) a volunteer program exclusive to Ohio residents in Franklin County ages 55 years and older. We match volunteers ages 55+ with nonprofits in their community that either need or rely on volunteers to be able to provide their services. Funded through the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) and part of AmeriCorps Seniors, VANTAGE Aging’s Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) is one of the largest volunteer networks in the nation for people 55 years and over. We partner with nonprofit agencies to match these older adults to their volunteer opportunities. RSVP projects link the skills of the volunteers with the identified needs of the community. We think of ourselves as the 'center hub' for our volunteers looking for opportunities. We offer many wonderful incentives and perks to our team of RSVP volunteers, this program is free and so rewarding to be a part of.
