Are you available 45 minutes a week? ACG Hospice volunteers can make a huge difference in someone’s life simply by being present. There are many ways to get involved with patients including reading the bible, magazines, novels and current events to patients that can no longer see. Patients and families request this service and volunteers are needed. All volunteers will receive training and patient matches will be made convenient for you. We serve our patients in the surrounding area in their home and nursing facilities.
