ORGANIZATION: Encompass Health Hospice GLH
Encompass Health is looking for volunteers to provide indirect contact services such as mailing letters, assisting Volunteer Coordinator in office, delivery supplies, and phone call support to patients/caregivers 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.
A few ways you can help as a hospice volunteer is by running errands for patients and families, playing games or reading with patients, walking and caring for family pets, or even creating a photo album of the patient and their family. (Direct support will continue when covid restrictions are lifted).
