We are looking for compassionate and dedicated volunteers to join our hospice team. Training is provided and can be started at home. Once training is complete, you will have the skills needed to visit hospice patients at home in order to provide companionship and caregiver relief. We also have opportunities to visit patients in our 15-bed inpatient unit as well as local area nursing homes. Hours are flexible and based on your own schedule. Just a few hours a week can make a positive difference in the life of a terminally ill patient and their family. Contact us today to learn more about this rewarding opportunity.
