The volunteer's role in hospice care includes patient/family and/or administrative support. Voluntters can provide direct support in the patient's home or nursing home facility with the purpose of companionship and/or caregiver relief. Some volunteers help the family/patient celebrate special occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, and holidays. Administrative volunteers primarily work in our hospice office filling and /or assisting with mailings.

Mission Statement
The mission of Curo Health Services and its hospice affiliates is to honor life and offer compassion to individuals and their families when facing a life-limiting illness.
Description
Our Commitment to Clinical Excellence
When a patient and family/caregiver, receive care through one of our affiliate hospices, you can trust that we will have a team of highly trained, hospice focused, professional caregivers who work together to develop a customized plan of care specific to the unique needs of the patient and caregiver/family.
Important elements of hospice care are clinical excellence, compassion, integrity and attention/responsiveness to patients and caregivers. Hospice is all about how well we provide care and services to our patients and their families during the final months, weeks, and days.
Our hospice affiliates are consistently recognized by our caregivers for providing a high level of care, with quick response and a clinical excellence that often exceeds the national average when compared to other hospice providers.*
We approach care on a holistic, patient-centered basis. Recognizing that each patient and family deals with illness and grief differently, the hospice care plan is tailored to meet those varied needs, while, at the same time, addressing the symptoms, need for pain management and all other technical aspects of an individual’s care.
