If you enjoy talking on the phone and have time to make a few calls, you may be a perfect Bereavement Telephone Assurance (BTAP) Volunteer.
VITAS BTAP volunteers make phone calls to bereaved family members after a hospice patient's death.
These short phone calls go a long way in making a difference in the lives of those coping with grief.
Use your compassion, your listening skills, and your time, enhanced by no-cost training and coaching from VITAS, to give back to your community and strengthen your resume. Hours are flexible and calls can be made from your dorm room, apartment, or home. For more information about VITAS Volunteer Services, visit: https://www.vitas.com/volunteer.

Description
Volunteers are the heart of VITAS Healthcare, providing friendly, non-medical patient and family care and offering support services in our office. VITAS Healthcare is looking for volunteers who are able to share their time with hospice patients living at home, nursing homes or ALF. Hospice volunteers give their time to terminally ill patients and their caregivers during a critical time. In orientation classes they are trained in listening skills, family dynamics and the right words to say to patients and their loved ones at the end of life.
VITAS takes pride in its volunteers, and we welcome you to become part of our team. There are many locations throughout the Brevard County area you can choose from. Your commitment is completely up to you and your time is always appreciated. For more information visit www.VITAS.com.
