Do you speak multiple languages? Do you have a passion for helping people through language translation? Then volunteering as a translator is the job for you!
Mesun Hospice provides hospice care to a highly diverse population mainly in Gwinnett, Dekalb, and Fulton counties. We are currently seeking Mandarin, Vietnamese, and Spanish speaking translators to volunteer their time to help our patients.
Translators would translate over the phone, visit patients in their home (with a Mesun staff member) or come to our Mesun facility in order to provide translation between the patient and the hospice staff.
Please contact Ashley Gibbs (agibbs@mesunhospice.com) if you are interested.
