Are you looking to give back to your community? Our caring visits provide an opportunity to make a huge impact on people's lives. Do you enjoy being a friend? Playing games? Baking a cake? Listening to music?
At Providence Care, there are many opportunities available for compassionate people seeking to enrich the lives of patients and their families. The Caring Visits usually include: reading, writing letters, listening to music, sharing stories, playing games together, offering support, companionship and bereavement support.
We have a recently initiated a Life Stories program and a Music Alive program that our patients really enjoy.
Training will be provided prior to any assignments. Scheduling is flexible and convenient.
Join the Providence team! We can't wait to meet you!

About Providence Care
Location:
1736 Old York Rd., York, SC 29745, US
Mission Statement
Providence is an organization committed to comforting suffering persons with life threatening or chronic illnesses. Our goal is to integrate physical, spiritual, psychological, and social care by offering a range of innovative services that address end-of-life issues and bereavement needs of children and adults.
Description
Providence Care has redefined the healthcare experience for the elderly. Our innovative Geriatric Wellness System - the only one of its kind in South Carolina includes three major components:
- House Calls controls illness and prolongs life
- Palliative Care focuses on comfort and quality of life given at the same time you are seeking curative treatments
- Hospice is comfort care when a cure is no longer possible
Our services are based on one fundamental principle: bringing healthcare to the elderly who are homebound. Regardless of where you live - at home, an assisted living or a long-term care community - our doctors and nurse practitioners bring their expertise and compassion directly to you. We also work to serve those who are under-served. When we see a need, we act quickly to fill it. We’re here to soothe pain, fear, hunger and loneliness. This is our mission.
We take the time. Our philosophy is to slow down, take time and truly connect with those we serve. Whether it’s our House Calls, Palliative Care or Hospice Program, the question we ask is, "how can we give you your best day today?"
