Small, nonprofit, faith-based hospice: Looking for a Beautician!

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Emmanuel Hospice

Emmanuel Hospice is a very special, growing, faith-based, non-profit hospice located on the West side of Grand Rapids. We are a close knit team and our staff, volunteers, and patients are like FAMILY to us! Our patients ALWAYS come first. We serve patients all over West Michigan in private homes and in facilities. We were created as a collaboration of 4 retirement communities: Saint Ann’s, Porter Hills, Clark, and Sunset. We are also supported by the Carmelite Sisters of St. Ann's Home.

We are currently looking for volunteers with a special niche for hair and beauty care. Often when a person enters the last stages of life they can no longer go to the hair salon or barber shop. We are looking for a barber, beautician, or cosmetologist who would be able to visit patients in their homes to provide this service. Scheduling is flexible and can be set to fit a volunteer’s personal calendar.

Volunteers are required to complete a background check, a TB test, and an orientation. Please contact Heidi at 616-719-0919, hpelton@emmanuelhospice.org. Volunteer applications are also on our website www.emmanuelhospice.org.

We look forward to hearing from you on this special opportunity.

Share your gift and make someone's day special!

Mission Statement

The mission of Emmanuel Hospice, an interfaith partnership, is to provide exemplary spiritual and physical care creating a peaceful experience for the dying and their loved ones.

Description

Why Choose Emmanuel Hospice?

Emmanuel Hospice is an interfaith collaboration of four local organizations with over 200 years of combined experience providing quality health care services in West Michigan.

St. Ann’s, Clark, Porter Hills and Sunset have joined together to deliver the highest level of holistic care to those who have reached the end of life.

The foundation of our partnership is rooted in common missions and values. This has enabled us, as like-minded organizations, to share resources, skills and expertise to better serve those in our community with a life-limiting illness or condition.

We are united in our aspiration to create a peaceful experience in any setting for the dying and their loved ones by providing exemplary spiritual and physical care. Our team is intensely focused on what is most important to each patient and family, and we encourage those we serve to celebrate life.

We begin every relationship by asking "How do you want to LIVE?", then strive to fulfill the individual wishes of our patients and their families.
