VITAS is looking for Light House Keeping Volunteers to help hospice patients and their families with light housekeeping assistance. We are currently looking for a Light House Keeping Volunteer to help during the day at a patient’s home in the St. Charles County area. Volunteers can support patients and families by offering to do light cooking/meal preparation, dusting, vacuuming, making the bed, washing dishes or doing a load of laundry. These simple tasks can become difficult for a patient and family at the end-of-life. Providing assistance at such a crucial time can make a real difference.
Comprehensive training and orientation for hospice volunteering is provided. For more information on this opportunity, please contact Emily Jokerst at (314) 682-3400 or at Emily.Jokerst@VITAS.com. We look forward to hearing from you.
