Do you enjoy helping those in need? Do you like talking on the phone? Then Grace Healthcare ServicesTuck-In program might be for you!! Grace Healthcare Services is a Hospice Organization seeking volunteers to assist with our new Tuck-In program.

  • What is a Tuck-in call?
    • Volunteers make a phone call to patient/family 5-7 days after they were admitted to Hospice Services, to ensure the patient and families needs are being met.
    • Volunteers follow a script with a few questions to ensure the needs are being met. For example, "were the medications explained to you?" "Has the Social Worker, Nurse, and Chaplain been in contact with you?" "Do you have any recommendations to help us improve our services?"
  • A report is made to the clinical staff and if the patient/family needs anything, our team will address the concerns in a timely manner.
The Tuck-in Program is our way of extending comfort and care when we are not in the home. For our volunteers it is a great way to make a positive difference in the lives of our patients and families.

We offer flexible scheduling, and once trained, calls can be made from our office or from the comfort of your own home!

Contact Kathleen Baile, Manager of Volunteer and Complementary Services, at Volunteer@Gracehcs.com to get started!
