Please visit the new page to apply.
If you sing, or play guitar, or keyboard, I don't need to tell you about the power music has to connect to memories and to bring calm in chaotic times. Hospice serves patients, and their families, at a time when change is constant. Holy Redeemer HomeCare and Hospice, is interested in having Hospice Volunteers, who are musically talented enough that they can use their skills to bring remembrance and peace to those we serve, providing intimate performances at the bedside.
All Hospice Volunteers are required to complete a training program and then undergo on-going education opportunities. Also, various background and health checks are required... So, it is a commitment.
An Introductory Packet is available to learn about the details of becoming an active Hospice Volunteer.
A training is starting mid-September, 2019. If you are ready to get involved, please consider this opportunity. Our patients would appreciate your special type of support.
Holy Redeemer is a non-profit agency.
