Volunteers are the Heart of Hospice & Community Care

"Hospice isn't about dying in the end. It's about living till the end." - HCC Volunteer

Looking for a unique & incredibly rewarding way to serve your local community and make a difference? Hospice & Community Care is seeking volunteers to provide companionship, emotional support, and social connection to patients in our care, either in their private residences or senior nursing facilities.

Volunteer Tasks May Include:

  • Visiting patients to bring companionship & comfort
  • Reading to patients, playing card games, singing or providing comforting touch
  • Staying with patients so caregivers can get a much-needed respite
  • Recording & documenting patient's life stories and history

To become a Hospice & Community Care volunteer you just need to have a heart full of compassion and a desire to make a meaningful difference. Training is provided for all prospective volunteers with both in-person and online options offered. A team of dedicated Volunteer Coordinators are available to provide continued support.

If you're interested in joining our amazing Volunteer Corps, please contact Jen Horan at (717) 735-2466 or email jhoran@hospicecommunity.org. Learn more about Hospice & Community by visiting www.hospiceandcommunitycare.org.
