Volunteers needed to visit with patients on hospice care. If you are able to share your time visiting and providing emotional support, companionship, and socialization for hospice patients, we would love to have you on our Patient Care Team. There is a lot of flexibility, and we can work with almost every schedule to meet our patient's needs and your needs. Background Check/TB test/Orientation/COVID vaccination are required.
