Join the Encompass Health family and become a Hospice volunteer
Encompass is looking for volunteers to provide companionship and support to patients during their final months and weeks of life. Volunteers provide non-medical services and respite time for caregivers and family members. As a hospice volunteer you will be given choices as to how much and what types of things you want to do.
Here are just a few specific ways hospice volunteers can help:
* Provide companionship and socialization
* Help with general office support
* Run errands for patients and families
*Write a journal or life story with patients to give to the family
*Play games, read, and listen to music with patients
* Walk/care for family pets
*Assist with light house cleaning
* Create a photo album of patient and family
Encompass Health values the generosity of our volunteers and provides training and on-going support. For more information or to sign up for the next volunteer training/orientation, please contact:
