Attention College Students: Volunteers Needed for Hospice

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Heartland Hospice(Formerly Promedica Hospice)

  • 6 people are interested
Hospice patient visiting

Heartland Hospice is looking for people who have a little extra time and a lot of heart! We are made up of a dedicated team that focuses on enhancing the quality of life by providing comfort care as well as spiritual, social and emotional support to patients in the final phase of a terminal illness. Volunteering for Heartland is an excellent way for college students to give back and become involved in their communities with flexible hours and weekend/evening hours available.

After excellent training, volunteers visit hospice patients in their homes about once a week, to listen, talk and comfort.

Our program stresses human values that go beyond the physical needs of the patient and we strive to ensure that our patients spend their final days in dignity and comfort. Volunteers provide a supportive role only, no hands-on care is required. PPE is provided to volunteers and temperature/symptom checks are performed prior to all visits. Social distancing guidelines are adhered to by all Heartland Hospice employees and volunteers.

Heartland Hospice volunteers say that being involved with another person's hospice experience gives them a greater appreciation for life.
