We offer in person and "virtual" volunteer opportunities such as: Face to Face companionship, pen pal program (from home or office), card sending (from home or office), plan events/activities and some Administrative work. Spend time with our patients and listen to their life stories, share interests, read to them, or be a silent presence in the room. Take as little as fifteen minutes of your day to write a card or spend a few hours visiting patients.

Mission Statement
Cardinal Hospice Care is committed to delivering a continuum of competent, dependable, compassionate, and valuable hospice services to eligible individuals in their home setting(private home or nursing facility).
Description
We are a provider of hospice services only. Our hospice program of care includes a Medical Director, Nurses, Home Health Aides, Medical Social Worker, Chaplains, Physical, Occupational, and Speech Therapies, and Volunteers. Facilities are once again letting volunteers enter to make visits. Volunteers can also visits patients who reside in private homes as requested. Some patients have elected to continue receiving cheerful cards/notes, but for those who desire visits, the amount of time for a visit is up to you. We would appreciate a minimum of one hour a week - more is even better as we are required to match 5% of staff hours, but if you can only give 30 minutes, then that will suffice.
