Volunteering with the Saskatchewan Health Authority
Volunteering has been shown to support healthy mental and physical well-being, reduce stress, and provide fulfilment and a sense of purpose. It offers critical support to people in need in your community, but the benefits can be even more significant for you, the volunteer.
A suitable volunteering role with the Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) can help you connect with local friends and community members, learn new skills, and be part of the Volunteering Team.
Volunteers generously give their time, skills, and talents without receiving financial compensation to support individuals and groups within the SHA. If you are looking for paid career or employment opportunities, please visit SHA Careers
If you have any questions, please email us at volunteers@saskhealthauthority.ca. We will do our best to respond promptly.
Program Spotlight - Volunteers bring comfort and connection across SHA
A meal delivered, a friendly conversation or a visit from a dog can brighten someone’s day. Across the Saskatchewan Health Authority, volunteers bring comfort and connection to patients, residents, families and staff—and often find those benefits extend to themselves.
At Dr. F.H. Wigmore Regional Hospital, pet visits also lift staff spirits.
“It always brightens the day whenever we get to see the dogs,” says staff member Shaleen Rigden. “Total mood boost that makes the whole day lighter.”
Through these everyday moments, volunteers help make care more personal and welcoming.
