This opportunity is to offer socialization and emotional support. Visiting someone under our hospice care who has memory impairment, can be truly rewarding. Being a safe visitor, who can offer a peaceful presence, reading, listening to music or light conversation. This opportunity would serve by being assigned to visit 1-2x per week for 1 hours. Training will be provided by Silverado hospice, and the Memory care community.
Our hospice volunteers play a critical role in supporting patients. In fact, many of our volunteers are people who benefitted from volunteer support when they cared for a loved one on hospice. People who have experienced hospice uniquely know how important these weeks and months are for patients and loved ones. It takes a special calling to be with someone when they are reaching end of life.
With help from people like you, we can ensure that families have a helping hand when they need it most. Volunteers can help in many ways
If you would like to know more about how you can volunteer for this or another opportunity please give Silverado Hospice, Volunteer Services program Manager, Valerie Lomeli 888-328-5660.

Description
Silverado Hospice honors the value of each life by empowering the patient and family to make supported choices in end-of-life care, enhancing comfort, relieving suffering and supporting effective grieving. We believe that Hospice patients have the right to continue life to the fullest extent possible according to their circumstances, and in fostering opportunities for growth and fulfillment. We further recognize patients and families decision-making rights in relation to continuing medical treatments and their right to withdraw treatment whose benefits are outweighed by their burdens.
