We are launching a brand new program called Pet Peace of Mind. This will be for the volunteer who loves to help and take care of animals but maybe aren't so keen on visiting patients. This volunteer would be responsible to go into patient's and caregivers homes in order to empty the litter box or walk the dog or simply to provide companionship for a lonely animal.

Description
Ascend Hospice is a for-profit hospice company with a growing presence in the greater Richmond area of central Virginia. We are dedicated to providing compassionate care and services to terminally ill clients and their families in their homes and residence facilities. We seek to care for the whole person - mind, body, and spirit. To that end, we provide support services (social work, chaplaincy, etc.) and alternative therapies (aroma, pet, massage, etc.), in addition to quality medical care. We believe that comfort and compassion should be available to those who have moved beyond curative medicine. Our goal is to preserve dignity and emphasize the importance of quality of life as we seek to help create a meaningful final chapter in the lives of our clients and their families.
