Calling all Volunteers - West Park Healthcare Centre


West Park Healthcare Centre helps patients get their lives back by providing inpatient, outpatient and outreach services in specialized rehabilitative and complex care after a life-altering illness or injury such as lung disease, amputation, stroke, and traumatic musculoskeletal injuries.

By 2023, West Park's 27-acre site will be transformed into an integrated campus of care, including a new hospital building and additional community supports such as assisted living for persons with disabilities and seniors.

This transformation enables the Centre to evolve its rehabilitative programs and strengthen links to community-based services to meet the future healthcare needs of our local community and the province.


Volunteer Opportunities Available Supporting Our Rehab Gym.
Volunteers will support our physiotherapy team and porter patients to and from their rooms to the rehab gym. Volunteers will help maintain the efficiency of the patients exercise session.
