Cornerstone Hospice is looking for Veteran Volunteers in Orange County

ORGANIZATION: Chapters Health System (Hospice)

Cornerstone Salute

If you served in the US Armed forces and are looking for ways to make a difference in the life of a fellow Veteran, look no further. Here at Cornerstone Hospice we pride ourselves in honoring our veteran patients and giving them the recognition, they deserve. One of the special ways we do this is by publicly acknowledging their military service and sacrifice by hosting a pinning ceremony in their honor. We will provide you with the training, but it is your military experience, the camaraderie and common language that makes your contribution so much more. If you want to take part in creating a beautiful memory for our Veteran’s family to hold dear to their heart, we would love to have you join our team.

Mission Statement

Cornerstone Hospice's mission is simple: Delivering extraordinary care to every person we touch in every community we serve. Volunteer opportunites are available throughout the seven Central Florida counties we serve: Hardee, Highlands, Lake, Orange, Osceola, Polk and Sumter, and now in Cobb County, Georgia. If you live in a neighboring county, you can still volunteer. However, all of your volunteer activities will take place in one of our seven counties, typically the one closest to you. PLEASE NOTE: Even if you are interested in several different volunteer roles within our organization, you only need to click on one opportunity during this process. You will have a chance to discuss ALL of your areas of interest during your volunteer training. Thanks!

Description

Cornerstone Hospice volunteers are a vital part of our entire organization, and play an active role in helping to provide the many special comfort and support services that distinguish Cornerstone Hospice care.

Our volunteers are special, but not out of the ordinary. They are regular people just like you. They use common sense and understanding. They do not need a medical background. They listen. They care. Volunteers help make a patient's life more fulfilling and satisfying by giving their time, understanding, and support and asking nothing in return. They also provide support to caregivers who are often with the patient 24/7 and may need a much needed break. If direct care is not for you, you can assist with administrative tasks at our office locations, and help out with events and community outreach. Any Cornerstone Hospice volunteer will tell you that they feel they receive more from their experience than they give.

PLEASE NOTE: All volunteers are required to go through a training class with additional training required for some positions. For this reason, becoming a Cornerstone Hospice volunteer is typically not appropriate for court related community service hours or other short-term requests. Ideally, our volunteers commit to at least one year with us.
