Auxiliary
Shortly before Maury Regional opened its doors in December 1953, the Auxiliary
was organized with a group of 127 charter members. Since then, the group
has grown to more than 500 men and women who now serve in more than 20 areas
of the medical center.
The Auxiliary funds special requests from various departments
of the medical center through membership dues, fund-raising
activities, and revenues generated from the operation
of the Gift Shop and Java
Junction.
The membership
is divided into three groups:
- Active members who volunteer 100 hours or more a
year
- Associate members who volunteer less than 100 hours
a year
- SuperStars who are former volunteers not able to
be active members, but who want to remain affiliated with the Auxiliary

Junior
Volunteers
The Junior Volunteer
program (formerly known as Candy Stripers) was established in 1955 with 54
charter members. Formerly a year-round program, it is now primarily a summer
program for high school teens.
Applications
are accepted only during the month of February and are available in
the volunteer office, by e-mail at volunteers@mauryregional.com, or can be
requested by phone. Interviews are conducted
and those selected are notified. Mandatory training is required prior
to every summer session.
Junior Volunteers
are required to volunteer a minimum of 70 hours
during the summer. They can pick from two sessions during the summer. They serve Monday - Friday from 9 a.m. - 2 p.m. in a variety of areas throughout the
medical center and gain valuable experience and insight into health care
careers. Many former Junior Volunteers have pursued a career in the
medical profession.
Care-A-Van
Shuttle
The volunteers
provide free shuttle transportation to any building or parking area
on the medical center campus. The shuttle runs Monday through Friday from
7:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. and makes regular stops in front of all major
entrances. The driver may be contacted by dialing 931.698.5928.
