How do I register?
Please email or phone our Volunteer Coordinator and they will be in contact with you to arrange an appointment. At the appointment you will be asked about what opportunities interest you.
You will also be required to:

All new volunteers must complete an induction with NCN Health. The Volunteer Coordinator will meet with you to go through the paperwork. Once you have satisfactorily completed the training you will be officially on the NCN Health Volunteer Program and supporting the health of your local community.

All Volunteers undertake ongoing Professional Development each year to ensure their safety and the safety of NCN Health patients, clients and residents. The Volunteer Coordinator will be in regular contact to advise of upcoming Professional Development opportunities.
