We have a wonderful opportunity for the people of Lakeville and La Paz. One of your community members is on hospice with Grace Hospice of South Bend and is needing help cleaning out her home. We are looking for a compassionate volunteer that would love to donate their valuable time to help out our patient and make this task achievable. We are looking for about two volunteers to come and help out twice a month at least. The amount time you would like to spend with our patient will mean so much to her and her family. Come make a difference today!
There are many different ways to apply. You can respond to this posting and Haley will get back with you as soon as possible. You can go straight to ghospice.com and fill out an application online. You can even call the office at 574-208-9270 and ask to speak with Haley and get started that way. We can't wait to get for you to get started.

Mission Statement
Our mission is for each employee to treat every patient as their own treasured loved one, providing care that affords a quality of life that outweighs quantity of days, and supports caregivers as their hearts find healing.
Description
HarmonyCares Hospice of Indiana is the first HarmonyCares Hospice in the state and has Nurses, CNA's/Hospice Aides, Social Workers, Chaplains and Volunteers that assist the patients and support their families wherever the patient considers their "home" to be.
The hospice philosophy focuses on comfort care not curative care. The goal of hospice care is for the patient to remain as comfortable and pain-free as possible in their own home or the home of a loved one through the end of life. Hospice care can also be provided in a long-term care facility or an assisted living facility.
Hospice is a philosophy of caring for patients whose medical conditions are not responding to treatment or for those patients who choose not to seek aggressive medical care at the end stage of life. It is a program for patients who are considered terminal and are expected to live six months or less if the disease follows its natural course, although many patients outlive this time frame.
We strive to improve the quality of life for all we serve including our patient's families, their neighbors, and the community they live in. We strive to make an impact with everyone we meet and improve the community as a whole.
Come make a difference with the first HarmonyCares Hospice of Indiana. This is an opportunity that will change your life.
