Sincere Volunteers Needed!

Save to Favorites

The Living Hospice Care of Texas, Inc., is seeking out Volunteers to make a difference in the lives of terminally ill Patients and their families.

The presence and service of hospice volunteers is targeted towards ultimately providing patients, caregivers, and families with the most comfortable and compassionate end-of-life experience possible.

We need smiling faces, positive attitudes, and helping hands.

The ways in which hospice volunteers provide service are largely grouped into two categories: direct care volunteering and indirect care volunteering.

Hospice volunteers who work directly with patients, caregivers, and families are considered direct care volunteers. Direct care volunteers can provide support and comfort to patients and families in many ways. Common areas where direct care volunteers can provide assistance are:

• Preparing meals for patients and families

• Providing transportation to patients, families, and the children of the families

• Assisting in light household chores

• Sitting with patients to provide companionship and a comforting presence

• Playing music for patients to provide a soothing and joyful atmosphere

For volunteers who prefer not to work with patients directly, their time and effort can be put to use in assisting the hospice organization with administrative and general office tasks. Common tasks where indirect care volunteers provide assistance are:

• Helping prepare mailings and newsletters for community outreach

• Assisting in general data entry tasks and other clerical duties

• Helping in preparations and setup for special community events and outings

Whether opting to be directly or indirectly involved with patient and family care, hospice volunteers are able to use their unique talents and skill sets to support hospice organizations and provide patients and families with a more comfortable end-of-life experience.
