James A. Haley Veterans’ Hospital depends on the goodwill of our benefactors and volunteers who wish to give something back to America's heroes.
Volunteering
The entire staff of the James A. Haley Veterans’ Hospital extends a warm welcome and appreciation for your willingness to serve as a volunteer at our hospital or one of our outpatient clinics.
To volunteer, call the JAHVH Voluntary Service Office at (813) 972-2000, ext. 7533 or visit the second floor, Rm. 2A-215L near the Canteen. We will be happy to receive your application or discuss how you can help us in our mission to provide comfort and care to America’s veterans.
The first step to becoming a volunteer is to fill out a volunteer application and the paper work for a TB Tine Test. Once you have the results of your TB Tine Test, please return the application and results of this test to Diane Layman, Voluntary Service Specialist, in Room 2A-215K.
If you are over the age of 18, you will then be sent for fingerprinting in Human Resources. Once you have completed the application process, you will be given paperwork indicating the date and time you have been scheduled for an orientation.
If you have any questions, please contact Diane Layman, Voluntary Service Specialist at (813) 972-2000 ext. 6579.
Please note, parking is at a premium – you may want to park at the University Square Mall, off of Fowler Avenue in Tampa. Currently, parking is on the back side of the mall on the west end. You will see a sign for “VA Shuttle.” The shuttle buses run approximately every 10 to 15 minutes, and will drop you off at the hospital’s main entrance.
