Thank you for your interest in attending the volunteer training for Seasons Hospice and Palliative care. I would very much like the opportunity to talk with you about the volunteer opportunities we have here at Seasons and get you pre-registered. The following is some basic information about a few of the volunteer opportunities within our organization. Patient care volunteers-Offer companionship, a calming presence and relief care. Reading, reminiscing, looking through photo albums and light conversation with our patients and families. Spiritual care volunteers-Provide a compassionate spiritual presence through poetry, special readings, prayer and meditation. May also support our growing bereavement team needs. Loyal Friends Pet Team- Our loyal friends pet team brings fury smiles to our patients and families through our animal assisted visitation and companionship team. Pets must have their pet therapy certification and handlers must attend orientation. Office or administrative care volunteers-Support the many different administrative roles in the office. Helping with filing, mailings, packets, medical supply stock and other special projects. During office hours of course. Veteran to Veteran volunteers-Visiting with those who have served in the United States Armed Forces. Sharing "war stories", life review or veteran’s history project, and replacing of lost medals. If you are interested in becoming a hospice volunteer and can attend training with us this month please contact us at khale@seasons.org and schedule an interview TODAY!
