Grace Hospice is currently looking for a volunteer who smokes or who is ok with being around someone smoking to allow the caregiver to leave the home to run errands/grocery shop. The caregiver would like someone anytime between noon and 5 p.m. as they cannot drive at night. All
you would have to do is sit at the home while they go out to do their errands. You can spend time watching TV, reading or pretty much anything you would like to do as the patient spends a majority of their time sleeping. If this sounds like something you would like to do contact us today!

Mission Statement
For each employee to treat every patient as their own treasured loved one, providing care that affords a quality of life that outweighs quantity of day, and supports caregivers as their hearts find healing
Description
Hospice care is not just for the patient. It also provides emotional support for the entire family. Hospice is a philosophy of caring for patients whose medical conditions are not responding to treatment or for those patients who choose not to seek aggressive medical care at the end state of life. Our program is for patients who are considered terminal and are expected to live six months or less if the disease follows its natural course, although many patients outlive this time frame. Our philosophy focuses on comfort care not curative care. Our goal is for the patient to remain as comfortable and pain-free as possible in their own home or the home of a loved one through the end of life. We also serve patients who are living in long-term and assisted living facilities.
