Volunteers have always been an integral part of Central Washington Hospital's
health care team. The origins of Central Washington Hospital date to the
early 1900s with the formation of Central Washington Deaconess Hospital
and St. Anthony's Hospital. The hospitals merged and combined their operations
to become Central Washington Hospital in 1978. From the beginning, the earliest volunteers were working as part of the health care team to deliver outstanding service to the patients, staff, physicians and visitors.
You too can have the opportunity to be a part Central Washington Hospital
by Volunteering. Special skills are a bonus, but all you need to be a
CWH volunteer is a willing heart and a warm smile.
