- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
Bristol Hospice volunteers embrace a reverence for life and work with an interdisciplinary team of physicians, nurses, home health aides, social workers and spiritual support providers who specialize in end-of-life care.
Volunteers provide companionship by reading, watching movies, recording life stories, creating memory projects and listening to music with patients. This is a wonderful opportunity for students (18+) interested in a medical career, social work or psychology. Let us know if you have a certified pet companion, if you're a Veteran, a massage therapist, a licensed cosmetologist... or you have a big heart!
Bristol Hospice is growing in San Joaquin, East Contra Costa, Amador and Calaveras Counties. Volunteer schedules are flexible to meet the needs of working adults and students. If you’re a reliable person who can commit to three hours week - and most of all if you’re interested in providing companionship to someone at the end of their journey, call the volunteer coordinators at Stockton Bristol Hospice.

Mission Statement
Bristol Hospice is graciously committed to our mission that all patients and families entrusted to our care will be treated with the highest level of compassion, respect, and quality of care.
Description
Bristol Hospice provides hospice services to meet the physical, psycho-social, and spiritual needs of individuals at the end of life. We focus on an individualized plan of care which may include, as appropriate, the following services: nursing, physicians, hospice aides, spiritual support, therapy, dietary, counseling, volunteers, durable medical equipment, supplies, bereavement services and medications related to the terminal illness.
Volunteers are an important part of the hospice model. Volunteers provide special compassionate presence and support to our patients and family in ways that only a volunteer can. When a volunteer visits a patient, they are visiting the patient because they want to be there. It's not a job or an obligation. That is a powerful action for our patients and families!
