As the world leader in volunteerism we feel a responsibility to unite our broader community, and to use this moment to become stronger.
See below to participate in our Impact Sector survey, access our COVID-19 Resource Hub, and explore our growing directory of COVID-19-specific and virtual volunteering opportunities.
We are seeking Veterans to visit with hospice Veteran patients. Share experiences with each other, provide support, and help us honor them during military holidays/remembrances, etc. You can also help with pinning ceremonies. We are looking for Veterans as the camaraderie between Veterans has proven to be supportive for all.
You can visit close to your home- free parking and mileage reimbursement. The time commitment is flexible as we respect you and your schedule.
Training is provided. Background checks and TB tests are required (expenses covered). Visits are done with your own car or if the home is on the busline.
Our mission is to provide premium comfort care to patients, families and caregivers through an interdisciplinary team approach that understands, respects and meets individual needs. Our vision is to become the leading provider of hospice care. We strive to provide our patients, families and caregivers with the highest level of satisfaction through our strong clinical outcomes and innovative approach by maintaining our core values of devotion, honesty, dignity and respect.
