"We depend on our hospice volunteers to help us provide the love, respect, and care our patients and families need. Some volunteers interact directly with patients and families, while others prefer to work behind the scenes in the office setting. As a volunteer, you would help us decide which tasks you are comfortable performing. Our volunteers help enrich the lives of our patients by:
- Running errands for patients and families
- Staying with patients so family members can get a much-needed rest
- Reading or providing a comforting touch
- Playing or singing soothing music to patients
- Helping with office support tasks at the agency
- Providing a friendly visit to lift a patients spirits."
- Listening to veterans as they tell their life story
- Educating and assisting patients on how to access veteran benefits
- Participating in pinning ceremonies and presenting recognition certificates
- Providing support to families and loved ones."
We suggest prospective volunteers wait a minimum of one year after the death of a loved one to volunteer. This waiting period will allow healing time and, if necessary, any adjustments to be made after a significant loss.
Covid-19 and Flu Vaccines - Volunteers must be fully vaccinated OR apply for a ProMedica Vaccine Medical or Religious Exemption.
If you have any questions, or want to apply, please contact Sharon Newbery, Volunteer Coordinator, at (706)860-7374, or sharon.newbery@ProMedica.org
