Volunteers for Eden Hospice are "hands off" meaning you would never be asked to move a patient, feed a patient, administer medications or provide personal care. Our volunteers provide companionship, go grocery shopping, do a little light cooking, cleaning or yardwork or sometimes provide brief respite (1-4 hours) for a family member. You choose what you would like to do!
Our number one need is companionship as many of our patients live alone or have few visitors if they live in a facility.
We have opportunities in Carson City, Reno, Sparks, Fernley, Fallon, Dayton, Minden, Gardnerville, Smith, Yerington, Lovelock and Hawthorne.
