Seasons Hospice and Palliative Care
Some of our patients are spending the final weeks, days and hours of their life alone, without family and friends nearby. Although they become part of the Seasons Hospice family, these individuals would benefit from your companionship and supportive presence at the end of their life. Vigil Volunteers are trained to support patients in their final hours by holding their hand, providing reassurance, placing a cool washcloth on their forehead, creating a peaceful environment through music and aromatherapy, and offering support throughout their transition.
You will receive full hospice volunteer training and specialized Vigil Volunteer training. All volunteers with Seasons Hospice complete a TB Test and background check, paid for by Seasons.
If this sounds like a meaningful opportunity to you, please contact us for more information.

Volunteers are carefully screened through a criminal background check, motor vehicle report, and personal references.
