Loving caring people are needed to visit lonely patients and/or support families. Many have been isolated because of Covid so your visit will make a huge difference.
Hospice cares for people at the end of their lives, when your love will be felt more intensely. There are some Medicare requirements before you can volunteer but if you are willing to go through the training and paperwork you will make a big difference by soothing the lonely, and calming the stressed. Some may want you to play music on your phone for them or read to them. If you are ready to be an angel, please respond. You will be vitally important to these families and be so appreciated!
We will try to make the training as simple as possible while still helping you acquire the skills you need. No skills are necessary to start except a loving, giving heart.
You need to be 18 to visit patients. We also have virtual and office opportunities for all ages. We are looking forward to meeting you!
