Our volunteers enhance the quality of life by providing different types of support to hospice patients and their loved ones. This can include keeping a patient company to ease loneliness, and /or lending support to family members by giving them a "time-out." Volunteers focus on what is important to the individual patient, perhaps reading, playing music, playing games, sharing memories or participating in a special hobby.

Please know that our hospice volunteers do not provide hands-on care; often the most important thing they do is just "be there" for patients to reassure them they are not alone, to hold a hand, to offer a smile, or to just listen. The personal rewards are enormous, and volunteers usually feel they gain more than they have been able to give.

One patient resides at a lovely Assisted Living in Irvine!

if this sounds like something you may be interested in, please email our Volunteer Coordinator at: ggbestvol@gmail.com, for an application and hopefully, to get the ball rolling!

Hope to hear from you!
