Hospice of the Chesapeake provides flexible scheduling and allows volunteers to work from whatever location is most convenient for them. The volunteer services coordinator took into consideration my preferences as well as my skill set to help me find a place within the organization that I enjoyed most and also performed best at. I have several additional certifications I can now use on my professional resume which will serve me better in the future, and were made available at no cost. I can obtain as much training and certification as I please, but there is no pressure to do more than I am comfortable with. All the staff has been very friendly and approachable, as well as professional. Any suggestions I have made for improvements were listened to with an open mind, and most often implemented as well. This is an organization in which I feel I have (and continue to have) a real impact on the people I am trying to help. I really feel like I have meaningful involvement here .
