Gilchrist Services is in need of hospice volunteers throughout Baltimore, Howard and Harford counties to serve our patients and their families in various ways. Volunteers are a crucial resource, offering assistance during the patient's end of life journey. Gilchrist volunteers offer companionship, run errands, make bereavement calls and provide administrative support. Care includes companionship, caregiver respite, and assistance with errands or light housework.

Mission Statement
Our Promise Gilchrist provides quality compassionate care, counseling and support to people at every stage of serious illness, so they may live life to the fullest. A nationally recognized, nonprofit leader in serious illness and end-of-life care, Gilchrist is deeply committed to giving people the loving support and clear information they need to make informed choices about their care.
Description
For more than 20 years, Gilchrist has been providing compassionate care and support for people with life-limiting illnesses. Most noteworthy, our programs offer comprehensive, coordinated care that addresses all of your family’s needs-whether they are medical, emotional, social or spiritual.
You may know Gilchrist best for the care we provide people near the end of life. Yet, we offer so much more than hospice. Above all, today’s Gilchrist extends services to individuals with serious illness who need care and support well in advance of hospice care. While we provide hospice care for children and adults, we also provide counseling and support before and after the loss of a loved one.
