No experience required. We are searching for Volunteers with compassionate hearts and the desire to make a patient’s remaining days as fulfilling as possible. Volunteering as a patient companion is about the gift of one’s presence and spending just a little of your time to sit with those who are facing life limiting illness. Volunteering can be as simple as holding a hand, reading, or playing a game. At times it might involve listening to cherished memories, sharing laughter and conversation. Being a patient companion volunteer is as individual as you are and is about bringing joy to you and others.
Our volunteers work in the home of a patient, assisted living facilities, nursing homes, or wherever a patient might reside. Volunteers determine when and how much time they can provide; whether that be a couple of hours a week, or a few hours each month. Must be 18 years old.
For more information, please contact Ali Mendiola Volunteer Coordinator at 503-453-2113 or by email at amendiola@brightonhospice.com.
