Volunteers are needed to help us care for the home and families that come through. There are a variety of ways you may help, with patient care being our biggest need. We ask that you are available for at least 4 hours each month. If you have a caring and compassionate heart, you have already met the basic requirements, as NO medical experience is necessary. We will teach you what you need to know to care for our residents. Some of the things you may lend a hand are shopping, clerical, gardening, meal preparation, event committees, cleaning, maintenance, transportation.
We welcome you to consider this meaningful role at such a profound time in a person’s life. Together, we have grown into a supportive family who care for our residents, their families, and all those who enter our home.
