Do you like to use your gift of encouragement or companionship to bless others? We have hospice patients and caregivers who are confined to their home who could use a friendly call throughout the week. This is an excellent opportunity especially for those whose schedules are full but still want to make an impact in the lives of those on hospice.
Because this is considered as a direct-contact with the patient, interested volutneer applicants are subject to a background check, drug test, and must undergo orientation.
