Volunteer with Eastern Health

Eastern Health values volunteers as they bring support and encourage community engagement which enhance the sustainability of our public health services. Eastern Health volunteers provide valuable support to our staff and patients, help improve safety, health and wellbeing of people in Melbourne's eastern, outer-eastern and Yarra Ranges communities. 

Information sessions are held twice a year, usually in February and July. If you wish to attend one of these sessions please complete and return the expression of interest form (download). Further details regarding information sessions will be available closer to the dates. 

Volunteers should be able to make a 12-month commitment.
