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.
Suncrest Hospice of Pueblo is looking for 11th Hour Volunteers. These volunteers are "on-call" during specific hours of the the day to sit with patients that are actively dying. Patients who have little or no family members nearby often find themselves isolated and alone during their last days. Our 11th Hour Volunteers keep vigil to provide a comforting presence needed by patients and families in the final hours of life.
11th Hour Volunteers can help by:
Being a calm presence during a difficult time
Sitting with the patient and/or family
Talking softly or singing to the patient
Sharing a sacred silence
Holding hands, massaging hands or feet
Praying, reading inspirational text or scripture
Honoring cultural and faith traditions of the patient
If you are interested in being a part of this very sacred time in a person's life, please contact us for more information. We provide the training that we feel you need to be successful and you are always supported by our entire staff.
Our mission is to provide the highest quality of care and customer service to our patients, their families, and our referring sources. We believe that exceptional clinical care must include clear communication, a commitment to exceeding customer expectations, and a dedication to deliver services with passion and integrity.
Description
Suncrest Hospice is dedicated to providing exceptional care to our patients and their families through qualified and compassionate physicians, nurses, aides, social workers, spiritual care providers and volunteers. Our team is passionately committed to making patients comfortable, while at the same time providing the necessary support to family members.
