Save to Favorites

Looking to gain more administrative office experience, or offer the administrative skills that you already have for a good cause?

Come make a difference, and help to improve the lives of terminally ill hospice patients in the King County area by joining our Seattle team!

Volunteers are an essential part of our dynamic interdisciplinary hospice team (of nurses, doctors, spiritual care providers, social workers and home health aides). Our Administrative Volunteers assist our Northgate Office staff, clinical team and hospice patients and families by tending to ongoing administrative duties and projects.

We provide free extensive training and ongoing education for our volunteers. We value and nurture our volunteers as essential members of our interdisciplinary team. We seek a diverse volunteer team that reflects our multicultural community. Volunteer trainings occur in our office in the Northgate area. Our patients and families are located throughout King County.

Qualified candidates must be at least 18 years of age, pass a background check, interview, fingerprinting, TB test, urine drug test, orientation training and orientation competency test. Please note that as of 1/27/2022, all volunteers on our hospice team are required to show proof of completion of COVID19 vaccination (2 dose of Pfizer/Moderna or 1 dose of J&J).

Open application period and interviews occurring now for upcoming training sessions. Trainings have customarily been held once a season in our northgate office. Due to COVID, in person trainings have been temporarily suspended. Depending on county and company precautions, upcoming training sessions may be a combination of online and in person. Duration of trainings are approximately 18-26 hours over the course of 3-4 weeks.

To receive application materials or further information, feel free to contact the Manager of Volunteer Services, Jemilla Goldstein at jacqueline.goldstein@kindredhospicecare.com or call (206)525-1090. After your several application materials are received via email/mail, we will schedule an interview (either virtual or in person, depending on precaution measures at the time.)

However you choose to spend your time, thank you for the ways in which you offer kindness and service to others during this unprecedented time in our community.
