VITAS is looking for kind and caring people to help terminally ill patients and their families. Friendly visits, simple errands, providing a listening ear and the gift of friendship at a crucial time can make a real difference in another's life. Yours, too!
Other VITAS volunteer activities: respite care (sit with a patient while the caregiver takes a break); friendly visits to patients and their families at home or in a nursing home; run errands to the grocery store, drug store, post office; assist with programs and special events. Times for volunteering are flexible according to your schedule and any time volunteering is greatly appreciated.
For more information, please contact Emily Jokerst at (314) 682-3400 or at Emily.Jokerst@Vitas.com.
