Do you have the gift of speaking more than one language?
Do you have an hour or more a week to provide companionship to someone who is needing a friend?
Harmony Cares Hospice formerly Grace Hospice, understands the impact that our Hospice Volunteers have on our patients and their families. Hearing their own language is an added form of comfort to many patients.
As a hospice team, we are dedicated and committed to meeting our patients and family’s needs, whatever those might mean.
Being a Hospice Volunteer is more than giving a few hours each week. It’s about giving of yourself in a way like no other. It is a relationship that enriches the patient’s life as well as the Volunteer's.
In order to provide the best opportunities of comfort and open communication for our patients and caregivers, we are seeking bi-lingual Volunteers.
Volunteers are afforded specialized training, given Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) as needed, become an integral part of the Harmony Cares Hospice care team and are provided direct support by the Volunteer Coordinator.
Are you ready to begin your new adventure into hospice care?
