Hospice is a medical specialty dedicated to the support and care of persons with limited life expectancies so they may live as fully and comfortably as possible.

Hospice volunteers are there to hold a hand and listen, read or write a letter, run errands or even help out at the office. Volunteers step in when the family needs a break and are tthere for the family and friends after the passing of a loved one.
