ProMedica Hospice is looking for Companion Volunteers who will visit patients in private homes and facilities based on your comfort level. The Companion Volunteer will provide companionship, play cards/games, watch TV, take the patient out into the garden area for fresh air, read to patient, etc. Families really appreciate a couple hours to get out of the house. There is no physical care involved. Hours are very flexible, weekdays, evenings or weekends.
We have patients who live in Oakland, Macomb and Wayne Counties, you visit patients as close to home as possible!!
