Hospice Volunteer
ORGANIZATION: Encompass Home Health and Hospice
Please visit the new page to apply.
Encompass is currently looking for volunteers who are willing to spend time with our patients that are enrolled in our care. You can spend minutes or hours with the patient. Most of our patients are without family members for 5-8 hours during the day and they would love someone to simply "be there" for the family and the patient during this time. All of your time spent will qualify for clinical or administrative volunteer hours.

Mission Statement
It takes a specail person to volunteer for Hospice patients. Right now we are looking for people to visit with our patients, maybe read them a book, go on walks, talk about their life history or even just sit with them. We want to make every day meaningful and easy for them. Even though we cant change the outcome, we can affect the journey. That is our mission at Encompass and we would love to see you be apart of something great.
Description
Volunteers are the heart of hospice, it started in the 1960's with volunteers to take care of the elderly who needed extra care. Over the years volunteers have continued that tradition. Encompass has been around for many years and this company stretches across the US. Our goal is to make the patients transition as comfortable and easy as possible, we provide around the clock care with Doctors, Nurses, CNA's, chaplains, social workers, bereavement counselors and of course volunteers.
