Music Volunteers bring so much joy to patients and their families. Music is a universal language that has the power to break through many barriers. We’re passionate about communicating with our patients that they’re not alone, and one of the most successful ways to do this is through music.
Duties include: Visiting with hospice patients and sharing the gift of music through singing or playing an instrument.
