VOLUNTEERS MAKE A DIFFERENCE! 

Our philosophy in care, the foundation on which our community at The Mount is built, is based on compassion, respect, and hospitality. A primary support in this foundation is the group of individuals who volunteer their time to share their conversation, experience, and passion for life with our community members.

If you are motivated, enjoy sharing the company of others, and have the ability to relate easily with a diverse and wonderful set of individuals, then consider joining our family here at The Mount and sharing your experiences with each and every one of us. The personal rewards that you receive in return for your gift of time will be plentiful and seemingly priceless.

All volunteers must apply in person to the Mount Continuing Care Community. All applicants must first provide a criminal record check, and properly filled out application forms. These forms will be available shortly. After going over applications, only qualified applicants will be interviewed.
