Thank you for your interest in learning about how to support those dealing with end-of-life concerns.

We offer multiple training sessions a year. There is an in-person group training session occurring three (3) Fridays: October 13, 20, & 27, from 9am-4pm. Please reach out to ask any questions. We are happy to hear from you.

You will be taught all you need to help the ill. A binder of teaching materials and a workbook are included. After the training, fingerprinting and TB test will be required. There is no cost for this training.

A hospice volunteer typically provides 2-3 hours a week of companionship, emotional and practical support or respite care to the patients and families that Central Coast Hospice (CCH) serves. Volunteers are a vital part of the hospice team as they can provide the time and attention that patients and families need and deserve. CCH serves patients from SLO County to Santa Barbara County, including Santa Maria. Volunteers help the same patient each week and we do our best to support and assist you.

We hope you can join us! Preregistration Required: An application and an informal interview are required. If you have questions, please contact us at 805-540-6020 and ask to speak to the Volunteer Coordinator.
