Mountain Valley Hospice and Palliative Care serves hospice patients in 17 counties in NW North Carolina and SW Virginia. We have eight office sites that include: Stuart, VA; Hillsville, VA; Martinsville, VA; Mount Airy, NC; Dobson, NC; Elkin, NC; Pilot Mountain, NC; and Yadkinville, NC; and are building a hospice home facility in Yadkin County.
We need men and women over the age of 18 to visit with our hospice patients to provide emotional support, companionship, errands, or respite breaks for weary caregivers. Volunteers do not provide any medically-related services and no medical training is necessary. You would be required to give at least two to four hours a month right in your own hometown community. Come join us and add life to someone's days by being that friendly support system they need as they make that final journey. Veterans for our Vet-to-Vet Program are especially needed.

Mission Statement
Creating the best experience for those facing serious illness... Every patient, Every family, Every time.
Description
Since 1983, we have been providing the highest level of compassionate, quality hospice and palliative care for those who are facing a serious illness. We allow you to spend more quality time with those you love and do the things that are most important to you.
We began as Hospice of Surry County, Inc, and then merged with Northern Hospice of Surry County in 2005 to form Mountain Valley Hospice and Palliative Care. We serve patients and families facing serious illnesses in 18 counties throughout North Carolina and Virginia. Through our scope of services, we care for the entire family, not just a set of symptoms. We provide care for patients wherever they call home.
Our health care team consists of Physicians, Nurses, Nursing assistants, Chaplains, Counselors, and Volunteers. We invite you to learn more about us and our scope of services that include: Support groups, Kids’ Path services for children, Special programs for Veterans, Alzheimer’s support, and Grief Support.
