ORGANIZATION: ProMedica Hospice

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.

As a hospice volunteer, you will be oriented to the hospice program so you understand our caring philosophy and goals. This will enable you to have the skills needed to assist patients and their families. You will partner with the volunteer coordinator to determine the best role to fill.

As a volunteer, you will have an opportunity to enrich the lives of others. You will meet and hear stories of a wide variety of patients and families. Volunteering provides significant value to our team as well as to our patients and families as we work together to provide quality care.

If you are a member of a special interest group (a choir, drama club, or garden club, etc.) you may want to volunteer your group for a special project or activity. Become an integral part of the ProMedica family by becoming a volunteer.

Description

Ten Commandments of Caring:
Our PATIENTS and RESIDENTS and their FAMILIES and their friends are the reasons for the services we provide. Without them, we are nothing.

Our patients and residents and their families:

1. Are the most important people.
2. Are not dependent on us--we are dependent on them.
3. Do not interrupt our work--they are the purpose of it.
4. Do us a favor when they request our assistance. We do not do them a favor by serving them.
5. Are the most vital part of our services. They are not outsiders.
6. Are not collections of charts, prescriptions, and bills--they are flesh-and-blood human beings with feelings and emotions like our own.
7. Are not to be argued with.
8. Bring us their wants--it is our job to satisfy those wants.
9. Are deserving of the most courteous and attentive treatment we can give.
10.Are the lifeblood of our community.
