We are currently looking for a Caregiver Relief Companion Volunteer to keep a hospice patient company. Caregiver Relief Volunteers allow caregivers to take a small break so they can shop and run errands outside the home. Caregiver Relief Companionship Volunteers provide non-medical services and visits to patients on hospice. Caregiver Relief Volunteer Visits are provided in 2 to 3 hour shifts. Any time you have available to contribute is greatly appreciated. There are many locations and opportunities available in the Greater St. Louis, MO area.
During these visits volunteers may read to patients, write letters for them, play music, games, share conversation and hobbies or simply hold their hand so they are not alone. Comprehensive training is provided and many opportunities are available. If you are interested in this exciting opportunity, please contact Emily Jokerst, Manager of Volunteer Services at (314) 275-6100. We look forward to hearing from you!
Our mission is to help patients remain at home and in their own communities, surrounded by friends and family while receiving the highest quality, most compassionate home- based care possible.
I believe in helping others as a hospice volunteer.
