Volunteer On-boarding

Volunteers are important members of our hospital workforce and treated as integral contributors to our success. On-Boarding as a UnityPoint Health – St. Luke's Volunteer is much like on-boarding as an employee. We want to make sure that our volunteers are vetted and trained to be successful members of our team. We are excited that you picked St. Luke's as a place to give of your time. The turnaround time from application to assignment is approximately 14 days.

4. New Volunteer Orientation

New Volunteer Orientation (NVO) is an essential component to on-boarding new volunteers. NVO provides an overview of polices & procedures and explains how volunteers assist UnityPoint Health in creating a positive healthcare experience! We ask that you complete all the orientation components within two weeks of your volunteer interview. Once you have completed all orientation components you will be contacted within 2 business days to finalize your next steps!

Please note, if you are unable to complete NVO components online, Volunteer Services will provide accommodations.

  • NVO Step 3: Set-up VicNet

    VicNet is our Volunteer Information Center. This hub allows volunteers to manage their schedule, view and submit service and more!

    • Step One: Review the instructions here to set up your account

    • Step Two: Log-in to VicNet for the first time here.

      • Ensure your information is accurate on the "My Profile" tab

Volunteers will be asked to come in early on their first day to receive their ID badge and volunteer shirt.
