Hospice Volunteer - LaGrange area

Save to Favorites

Volunteers are such a special part of the hospice care team. They can provide a variety of supportive services to enhance the quality of life for our patients and their families.

Our direct volunteers can help our patients and families by:
* Visiting patients regularly to provide companionship and/or lift patient’s spirits
* Sitting with patients to relieve families
* Helping with light housekeeping
* Working on life-history projects with patients for families to have
* Providing bereavement or grief support to families after the loss of their loved ones
* Providing specialized services like pet therapy and music enhancement
* Being patient, kind and reliable
* Being considerate of all beliefs/religious customs

To be sure that our patients and families receive the highest quality of care and services, all of our volunteers must submit to a background check. Volunteers receive training on the history of hospice, our care and philosophy, and what we offer as hospice providers. Orientation will also include many other safety pieces and training on the hospice environment

While being a direct volunteer is not always easy, you enhance the lives of so many patients and families in everything that you do, and your support is priceless to us.
