Support is provided in a variety of ways, including the provision of companionship and socialization to patients, or offering respite to stressed caregivers. All care provided by the Patient Support Volunteer is outlined in the Volunteer Plan of Care and agreed upon by the Interdisciplinary Group (IDG).
