Hospice Volunteers Needed

Save to Favorites

Access TLC Hospice is always looking for friendly, compassionate, and caring volunteers to join our team. Volunteers give the gift of assistance and comfort to our patients and their families. It is meaningful work and very self-rewarding.
Hospice volunteers become friends with people who are terminally ill in the last phase of their lives. You are that calming presence, a guest, and observer. With full support from our disciplinary team, volunteers provide direct patient contact and can often give the team valuable feedback about issues that may arise during their visits.
You would need to:
o Commit to a one time Orientation date/time
o Be 18 years of age or older
o Be dependable, patient and a good listener
o Know your strengths, limits, and be non-judgmental
o Respect all beliefs, and all religious customs
Visit patients at their home, nursing and assisted living facilities, and board & cares. Be a friendly companion, read a book or newspaper, listen to memories, letter writing, play a game, puzzle, or play a musical instrument. We work around your needs so you can dedicate as much time as you have available each week. All Volunteers will receive hospice training, a TB Test and criminal background/DMV check, all at no cost to you. Our office is in Moorpark, CA but our patients reside throughout Ventura County and the San Fernando Valley. We also keep a record of all Community Service Volunteer hours if needed for school or work. Please contact Stephanie at Access TLC Health Care at 805-517-1620. Thank you
