As the world leader in volunteerism we feel a responsibility to unite our broader community, and to use this moment to become stronger.
See below to participate in our Impact Sector survey, access our COVID-19 Resource Hub, and explore our growing directory of COVID-19-specific and virtual volunteering opportunities.
There are lots of volunteer opportunities on this site, so thank you for considering our request!
We are searching for people who are truly interested in making a difference in people’s lives. The simple act of presence and companionship can bring joy and comfort to a hospice patient and their family. Sharing time with another is mutually rewarding and is a highlight of the day for many of our patients. Sitting with a patient allows their loved ones a break in their routine and offers respite from the demanding roles that caregiving often requires. Just knowing there is another caring, compassionate person who visits regularly is a relief for the family and an opportunity to make a difference and matter in another’s world.
Volunteer orientation will be provided, and a supportive staff will welcome you to our team. Please consider making a lasting impact in your community as a Residential Hospice Volunteer!
Disclaimer: We are sorry, but we cannot accept any court ordered community service.

We aspire to be the leading provider of hospice services for people in Michigan and Illinois with a life-limiting illness. We are committed to equipping our highly trained and dedicated employees with all of the resources necessary to provide extraordinary care and service.
Description
Residential Hospice provides a team of specially-trained professionals and volunteers to provide care, comfort, support and dignity to patients and families when their illness no longer responds to cure-oriented treatments.
Residential Hospice brings better care home to patients and families by offering them individualized care plans, developed with their physicians and carried out in familiar surroundings with compassion, dignity and support.
As part of the Residential Home Health family of companies, Residential Hospice is ready to provide expert medical care, emotional comfort, spiritual support and pain management to meet the needs of each patient.
Residential Hospice’s objective is caring, not curing, helping patients and their families focus their energy on the things that matter most.
