Compassus Hospice is seeking Reiki practitioners to assist in caring for our patients in a holistic, person centered approach. Applicants should be trained Reiki therapists, and be patient and compassionate. This type of companionship experience can be very rewarding and life-changing. We provide the hospice training and ongoing support and education. You make your own visit schedule. We require a minimum of a 6 month committment, background check and 2 step TB test.
If you feel drawn to sharing your talents in this manner with someone at the end of life, please contact Kim Iannacci, Volunteer Coordinator at Kimberly.Iannacci@compassus.com or call (978) 777-8222.

Description
Compassus Hospice volunteers play a vital role in carrying out our mission to preserve each patient’s dignity while removing the fear associated with dying. Individuals who are 18 and older who are willing to share one to four hours per week are encouraged to apply to our program. Serving as a volunteer will enrich your own life in ways you can’t begin to imagine.
No previous experience in the medical field is necessary, and you will be prepared for your role with a free, comprehensive training program. This training will help you learn how to provide emotional support, companionship and respite care to patients and families.
