Description
Hospice volunteers are committed people who donate a few hours to provide emotional support and respite care to hospice patients and their families. Their compassionate and caring nature is evident as they help people through what can be one of life’s most difficult processes. Volunteers often make a big difference in the life of a hospice family. They are available to serve in many ways, but are often most valued as a caring listener, in providing relief to caregivers or helping with errands. The hospice volunteer plays a pivotal role in the provision of services to patients and families. As the only non-paid team member in the program, they bring to the terminally ill and loved ones a special kind of caring that comes from a desire to help and aid in comfort.
