People of all ages, faiths and backgrounds volunteer at Mercy Medical Center – Des Moines and its affiliates. Despite their diversity, these men and women have one thing in common – a selfless desire to give back to their community and help others.

Volunteers are valuable members of the Mercy Family – generously donating their time to assist our staff and patients so that we may provide the best possible health care available.

In fiscal year 2009 (July 1, 2008 – June 30, 2009), Mercy had more than 450 active volunteers who gave more than 37,000 hours to the patients, families and communities we serve. We deeply appreciate these individuals.

If you live in the greater Des Moines area and would like to participate in a rewarding and fulfilling experience, please consider becoming a volunteer at Mercy Medical Center – Des Moines or one of its affiliates.
