Volunteers are essential members of our dedicated team. We are committed to providing the care to patients so that they may be pain free & die with hope and dignity.

Individuals of all types are needed to create the unique bond that occurs between the volunteer and the patient.

We serve patients in private residences and nursing home settings in the Greater Pittsburgh Area. Some of our local nursing home settings we currently serve include: Rochester Manor, Evergreen Nursing Home, Friendship Ridge, Beaver Elder Care & Rehab, Beaver Valley Nursing & Rehab, & Masonic Village at Sewickley.

Volunteers are required to complete a free comprehensive training. You must have your own transportation, however all travel will be convenient for you.

Mission Statement

Heartland Home Health Care & Hospice is a growing company dedicated to providing compassionate high quality home health care. We will achieve this by recruiting professional, caring staff, encouraging patients to become active participants in care, and by creating an atmosphere of supportive leadership. We value strong, mutually beneficial relationships with referral sources, employees, patients and caregiver and community at large.

Description

Hospice is a special kind of care designed to provide sensitivity and support for people in the final phase of terminal illness. Hospice care seeks to enable patients to carry on an alert, pain-free life and to manage other symptoms so that the last days may be spent with dignity and quality at home or in a home-like setting. It is the goal of Heartland Hospice to provide palliative and supportive services to meet physical, psychological, social and spiritual needs to the patients and caregivers in the home, health care facilities, or other residential settings. These services will be provided without regard to race, religion, gender, creed, sex or ability to pay.
