Harbor Hospice of Plano | Volunteers Wanted

We are in need of volunteers to help with activities at a small senior community in N Garland, Texas. This will be a fun opportunity where you may call a BINGO game, help with decorating cookies, lead a trivia session, host a tea party or just read with a few residents. Supplies will be provided so all we ask for is your time. We would like to have someone who is available one to two times a week at the same time, so the sweet residents get to know you and when you are coming. There will be no clinical / medical care, there are CNAs and nurses for that, this will just be a fun companionship type of opportunity.


Volunteers are literally, the heart of Harbor Hospice, providing a special kind of caring and compassion for our patients and their families. Every day, our volunteers make a difference in the lives of so many people. Whether they offer a listening ear to patients and families, assist with daily household activities for patients, provide grief support, serve as a companion to loved ones or share their personal expertise to help promote hospice care, the time given to Harbor Hospice families by our volunteers can be the most rewarding experiences of their lives. As a volunteer for Harbor Hospice's Patient Care Services, you "do good" every day. It takes a very special, caring person to give of themselves as unselfishly as our Harbor Hospice patient care volunteers. If you'd like to be a part of the Harbor Hospice team, here are some examples of the activities you can assist with:


  • reading to a patient, or holding a hand
  • staying with a patient while family members take a needed break or keep an appointment
  • shopping or doing errands for a patient
  • listening
  • helping patients write or tell their life stories
  • light household chores
  • providing help with makeup and hair
  • Veterans needed to honor Veteran patients at bedside/share stories together
  • working on crafts or other projects
  • clerical and other office duties

If you would like to volunteer for Harbor Hospice, please follow these steps:
