Caregivers in your community need your help! It is easy to say that someone else in the community will come forward, that is not necessarily true. Be the one to come forward and offer help sitting with a patient in your area. We appreciate all the help you give to help others in your community. Help us help them! Your community could use everyone's help.

Mission Statement
At Heartland Hospice, formerly ProMedica Hospice, we understand the importance of time shared with family and friends, especially when facing the challenges of a life-limiting illness. Our clinicians are dedicated to offering the compassionate physical, spiritual and emotional care people need to make the most of these moments.
Description
Heartland Hospice has an ongoing need for Volunteers to visit with our patients diagnosed with life-limiting conditions whom have elected hospice care.
Hospice is a comprehensive, medically-directed, team-oriented program of care that focuses on symptom management, comfort, and providing support that meets physical, psychological, social and spiritual needs of patients and their families. Hospice volunteers provide extra love and care to patients and their families. For example, a hospice volunteer may provide support by staying with the patient so family members can take a break, or they can run an errand for the patient, read scripture, play or sing a patient’s favorite song, hold the patient’s hand, and provide companionship to help reduce feelings of isolation and loneliness.
Heartland Hospice Volunteers truly make a difference in the lives of others!
