Volunteering at Reliant Medical Group
Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Reliant Medical Group! We offer a unique opportunity for volunteers to help meet the needs of communities throughout Central Massachusetts in a dynamic health care setting. We have over 20 locations throughout Central MA, located from Fitchburg to Webster, including in Worcester, Westborough, Milford, Auburn and many other communities. As a volunteer with us, you may help with projects in our administrative offices, clinical locations (though these are not appropriate for academic clinical placements or internships), reading programs, and more.
We have a dedicated Volunteer Coordinator who works with each potential volunteer to find the right fit within our organization through a personalized placement process (including a brief application and screening).
