Provide support to patients dealing with a serious illness who are not yet ready for hospice for up to 2 hours a week. Opportunities include:
- Companionship for patients (talking, reading, playing games, etc.)
- Caregiver relief
Patients are located in their private home and facilities throughout the Twin Cities south metro. You will be strategically matched with patients close to your home, and you get to choose which patients you want to visit. The time you spend volunteering each week is flexible and will be scheduled directly with patients and/or caregivers.
No medical experience is necessary. Health screening, background check, and training provided at no cost to you.

Mission Statement
Mission: Our compassionate, qualified teams partner with community healthcare providers to deliver consistently exceptional care for patients and their families.
Description
When life expectancy is limited, Accentcare Fairview Hospice staff and volunteers will help patients and caregivers focus on improving the quality of their remaining days. Hospice provides medical, emotional, social and spiritual care. We bring these services to the familiar setting of patient's own homes whenever possible. The same kind of care may also be given at a long-term care site, a group home, an assisted living site or a residential hospice.
