We offer educational experiences for med students.

We've seen the looks on people faces when we talk about hospice volunteering. Yes, it may not be for everyone, but it's really one of the most rewarding things you'll ever do. It's not scary, and we'll make sure you know what to expect. Many times you'd be asked just to sit with a sleeping patient and squeeze their hand, read a book of poems or the Bible to them, or just watch their favorite game shows with them. We won't sugarcoat it either, it can be sad sometimes also. Just know that you're presence would bring joy to the patients and families in a trying time.
Let us help you make a difference in the community.

Disclaimer: We cannot accept court ordered community service.

About Residential Hospice

Location:

1681 Woodbridge Park Drive, Lapeer, MI 48446, US

Mission Statement

We aspire to be the leading provider of hospice services for people in Michigan and Illinois with a life-limiting illness. We are committed to equipping our highly trained and dedicated employees with all of the resources necessary to provide extraordinary care and service.

Description

Residential Hospice provides a team of specially-trained professionals and volunteers to provide care, comfort, support and dignity to patients and families when their illness no longer responds to cure-oriented treatments.

Residential Hospice brings better care home to patients and families by offering them individualized care plans, developed with their physicians and carried out in familiar surroundings with compassion, dignity and support.

As part of the Residential Home Health family of companies, Residential Hospice is ready to provide expert medical care, emotional comfort, spiritual support and pain management to meet the needs of each patient.

Residential Hospice’s objective is caring, not curing, helping patients and their families focus their energy on the things that matter most.
