Specially trained volunteers "interview" patients sharing their amazing stories from the unique and invaluable perspective only someone at the end-of-life could have. After the recording is complete, volunteers do simple editing, burn an audio CD, and present the copy as an invaluable keepsake. This program is an example of one of those little extra touches that our volunteers can provide to make their Pathways experience extra special.
Opportunities exist in both Weld and Larimer counties.

Description
Pathways, located in Fort Collins and Greeley, is a local nonprofit organization providing symptom management and support for serious long-term illness, expert medical and hospice care for individuals navigating the last months of life, and grief counseling and programs for those mourning the loss of a loved one. From our beginnings in 1978, when a group of nurses came together in Loveland to voluntarily care for a friend in the final months of her life, we’ve been assisting Northern Colorado residents with hospice care and grief counseling regardless of financial circumstance. We serve individuals living in Larimer County, western Weld County, and the Highway 85 and I-25 corridors including the towns of Fort Collins, Loveland, Greeley, and Windsor.
Volunteers are truly at the heart of Pathways care, providing support to patients, families and Pathways staff. Today, more than 250 volunteers work in almost every department of Pathways.
We offer a variety of ways to become involved in clinical and non-clinical roles. Clinical roles include those in which volunteers provide support to patients and families; non-clinical roles are "behind-the-scenes" in nature and are vital to the delivery of our organization’s mission.
Whatever your skills, interests and motivations, our community is strengthened by your volunteer involvement. THANK YOU!
