ORGANIZATION: Salus Hospice

• A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
• 40 people are interested

Do you speak a foreign language? Chinese, Spanish, Vietnamese, Japanese, Arabic? Patients on Hospice often feel isolated and lonely, especially when there is a language barrier. Volunteers provide support and companionship to patients as well as giving family caregivers a needed break. Our patients, who are in the final stage of illness, will appreciate volunteers who can talk with them in their primary language.

Volunteer opportunities located throughout San Diego County, with a one-time training session required at our San Diego Office.

We will work with your schedule.

Requirements:

• fill out all necessary paperwork for your file including a copy of your driver's license and auto insurance
• attend a 4 hour training orientation
• complete a background check
• receive a TB test (unless you have had one in the past 6 months)
