Volunteer Program
The hospice philosophy focuses on quality of life for those living with end-stage illnesses so they may maintain as much comfort and dignity as possible. Our dedicated team of healthcare professionals and volunteers provides caring support for both the patient and their loved ones.

Volunteers are an important part of the hospice philosophy. You are there to provide companionship, read a book, write a letter, take a patient outside or to a facility activity. Volunteers step in when a family member needs a break, and area there for the family and friends after their loved one has passed away. No matter what your skills, talents or motivation, we have the opportunity for you!
