Seniors with Hospice Patient

Being a hospice volunteer is an intensely rewarding experience. As a hospice volunteer you will be given the choice as to what types of activities you want to participate in and how much time you are willing to contribute. You will impact patients and families lives by providing companionship and suport. A volunteer does this by reading, journaling, playing games, taking the patient for a walk, plant flowers, share a craft, and by just being a FRIEND.
