Can you Spare an Hour a Week for a Hospice Patient in McKinney?

ORGANIZATION: ARDENT HOSPICE

Ardent Hospice
Enhancing the Quality of Life at its End

We're looking for friendly people to make hour-long visits once a week.

Hospice volunteers help add to the quality of a patient's time at the end of life's journey. Typical activities include - visiting, reading, listening to music and providing support to the patient's family. Visits to patients are made in their homes or elder-care facilities in the DFW metroplex. Although our office is in Flower Mound, we have patients all over the DFW metroplex. We currently have several patients in Collin County but sadly, have no available volunteers in McKinney. Volunteers are matched to patients located near them.

Recommended commitment level: one-hour visits each week, hopefully at least three visits per month. No special skills needed.

Training takes about three hours and occurs in our Flower Mound office. The date for the next session isn't set yet, but will probably be on a weekday afternoon in June. Please contact us and we'll let you know the details when available.

Thank you!
