Join our mission
Volunteers
Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Casa de Salud! Casa provides high quality health and wellness services for underserved communities in St. Louis: immigrants, refugees, and the uninsured. We count on dedicated volunteers to help us meet this mission.
Apply to be a volunteer
We want to give meaningful service opportunities to our volunteers and interns. To do this, we use a rigorous selection process that matches our program needs to interested volunteers.
Licensed health care providers give Casa the ability to offer quality medical and mental health services at a low cost through in-person and telehealth visits.
We provide interpreters so you can communicate with every patient and medical scribes so you can focus on patient care. Our greatest needs are for:
-
Internal medicine physicians, psychiatrists, orthopedics, and dermatologists
-
Mental health professionals
Non-licensed volunteers fill a number of important roles at Casa. We have a need for volunteers with and without proficiency in Spanish or other languages.
Volunteers who are not licensed health care providers fill these important roles:
-
Medical interpreter*
-
GUIA financial assistance specialist*
-
Mental health intake specialist*
-
Medical scribe
-
Administrative volunteers
-
Communication volunteers
*Spanish proficiency required​
How to apply
Casa’s team of clinical and mental health care providers delivers non-emergency services. The team also includes clinical staff, administrative support, and interpreters so that language is not a barrier to care.
