Pathways to Compassion Hospice is seeking compassionate, caring individuals to serve as hospice volunteers. PTCH serves patients in Waverly area and those patients need a friendly visitor! Volunteers provide support to terminally ill patients and their families in our community by offering comfort care, respite care, and companionship to patients. Hospice volunteers, as a part of the interdisciplinary team, make an unselfish commitment to be a steady source of comfort and compassion for the families they serve. Volunteers may offer relief for the family, listen and support the patient and family, or simply play cards with the patient. If you are a good listener, or a good talker, and are able to provide a comforting touch and calming presence, this volunteer opportunity is for you! Thank you for your interest!
Supervision, training, and support is provided.

Description
Hospice provides palliative support and care for persons in the last phases of incurable disease so that they may live as fully and as comfortable as possible. Hospice recognized dying as part of the normal process of living and focuses on maintaining the quality of remaining life. Hospice affirms life and neither hastens nor postpones death.
