The services you will give as a hospice volunteer will profoundly improve the quality of our patients' lives. Friendly visits enable families to keep their loved ones at home, around the people they love, and the things they love. Assisting with errands helps a tired family cope with their many challenges and allows them time with their loved one, or a chance to get out for a break or to complete errands.
Volunteering takes no advanced medical training or great commitment. It can be as simple as reading to a patient, gentling holding a patient's hand, listening to memories-- even sharing quiet time. It is these small deeds of kindness that so profoundly enhance the lives of our patients and those who love them.
Our volunteers are thoroughly trained and supported in the skills they need for the volunteer visitor role. If you are interested in becoming a hospice volunteer or would like more information please contact us today.
