Everyone knows that women, regardless of age or illness, like their hair to be stylish! We visit our patients wherever they live in the Valley: their own home, group home, or other assisted living facilities. Sometimes, our patients tell their nurses or aides one of the things they miss most is having their hair styled by a professional. As one woman told us as she looked in the mirror "look at that, look at that... my hair looks terrible." To some people, this might be an odd comment coming from someone that had so many serious health issues/concerns. But we understand. Her basic need for style was not being met.
Please consider joining our team as a volunteer hair stylist. As a hospice volunteer, there are minimum requirements before being with a patient: application, TB test, background check and orientation. There are no costs for any of these to you, Haven Hospice handles the expense. We simply need you to do what you do best -make someone feel special.
As noted, our patients are located throughout the Valley so your willingness to go to where they live is very important. Day/times are flexible.
Thank You for considering this opportunity to make others feel good!

Mission Statement
Haven Hospice is committed to providing quality care for patients faced with a life-limiting illness. The goal is to improve the quality of a person's life through pain and symptom control, emotional and spiritual support. We believe that the patient and family are intergral decision making members of the hospice team in planning and receiving care. Hospice offers an alternative to repeat hospitalizations. Hospice affirms life. It neither hastens nor postpones death, but assists the patient and family in living with a life-limiting illness. Hospice regards dying as a normal process at life's end in which we can provide dignity and comfort for the patient and loved ones.
Description
Haven Hospice reaches it's goal of supporting the patient and their families through several various disciplines. Our doctors, nurses, CNA's, social workers, chaplains, volunteers and community educators make up our caring team of individuals who know how important hospice is to not only the patient, but to the entire family.
