We are seeking individuals that have a heart to share the gift of their time with someone on their final journey through life.
Simply being a friend to someone that is alone and unable to leave their residence due to their health condition can make all the difference to a person.
Visiting, watching TV, card games, reading, writing or just hand holding could bring joy in the life of a lonely person. Listening to stories of much happier times warms the heart of someone facing the toughest time in their life.
Comfort Hospice volunteers might:
- provide companionship and emotional support to the patient and family members
- offer friendly visits
- prepare occasional light meals
- sing, talk, read with the patient
- watch TV with the patient
- help write letters, emails
- play games with the patient
- offer short term respite visits to offer relief for the family and caregivers
Volunteers CANNOT do the following:
- provide transportation for the patient or family
- transfer or lift a patient
- provide personal care such as feeding, bathing, or toileting
- feed a patient
- administer any medications
