Are you looking for a volunteer opportunity you can do from home? Something that works with your schedule?
We have it!
Suncrest Hospice OKC's Tuck-in Program is an amazing example of the Suncrest Difference. In addition to looking after the physical, mental, and spiritual well-being of our patients, our organization wants to go above and beyond by also offering emotional support. Our volunteers are an integral part of this care.
Volunteers in the Tuck-in Program simply call patients to "check in" on how they are, what's happening in their lives, or if they need anything. The volunteer passes any pertinent information on to the Volunteer Coordinator/Care Team. That's it!
One phone call can mean so much to these individuals, and truly make a difference in their quality of life.

Description
Home Hospice Volunteers: Home hospice volunteers serve patients in their homes, which may be a house, an assisted living facility, or an independent living facility. The volunteer generally provides caregiver respite and/or patient companionship. The schedule for these visits varies greatly, and is typically arranged between the family and volunteer, based on the family’s needs and the volunteer’s availability. The time commitment also varies, but a volunteer generally offers two to four hours per week to the family.
Nursing Facility Volunteers: Volunteers who visit our patients in nursing homes spend their time talking with them, reading to them, or just sit quietly in their presence.
Healing Arts Volunteers: Healing arts volunteers may be licensed massage therapists, have a pet who is certified to visit patients, practice aromatherapy, music therapy, a Reiki practitioner, or an art therapist. Healing arts volunteers may practice in patient homes or facilities.
Administrative Volunteers: Our administrative volunteers perform a variety of duties in our fun office, from assisting staff with mailings, answering phones, filing, making packets, special projects, or working on the computer.
