Seasons Hospice & Palliative Care needs volunteers for our Atlanta office. Office Volunteers are integral members of the hospice team. These volunteers provide administrative assistance and are vital in helping not only office and field staff, but in supporting patients and their families. Our Atlanta office hours are Monday - Friday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. Our office is walking distance from St. Josephs Hospital and Marta Medical Station.
Some things that Office Volunteers help us with may include but are not limited to:
* Answering phones, assisting with mailings, and filing
* Assembling Home Patient charts and Welcome packets for new patients
* Data entry if you feel comfortable working on a computer

Description
Hospice volunteers both give and receive many benefits from joining our program.
Volunteers set their own levels of commitment and travel based on their available time and the needs of our patients. Volunteers serve our adult patients of all ages who live within the metro Atlanta area.
Volunteer selection begins with an application and interview where potential volunteers may express their personal goals, availability, interests and talents.
Volunteers are carefully screened through a criminal background check, motor vehicle report, and personal references.
Direct Care Volunteers help by providing comfort, support, care and compassion to our patients and their family members, and are required to participate in initial hospice volunteer training as well as basic orientation.
Indirect Care Volunteers help by providing administrative assistance on special projects that enhance the work of our staff and support patients, families and the efforts of the teams in the field. Indirect Care Volunteers receive basic orientation, training specific to task undertaking, and are encouraged to attend initial hospice volunteer training.
Additional support meetings and educational opportunities are offered throughout the year as well as ongoing personal support and social gatherings.
