Volunteers are the Heart of Hospice ViaQuest Hospice is seeking volunteers to share time with our hospice patients. An hour of your time makes a big difference to a person at end of life who simply needs companionship.
Volunteers can visit with a patient, talk, read, reminisce, watch TV, sing, play or listen to music, accompany a patient to facility activities, help complete a puzzle, scrapbook, letter or so much more. Other ideas, call me?
Come share your time and talents. "I always get more than I give after our visits" -Volunteer
Some patients need volunteers for visits for 'caregiver relief' to provide occasional support caregivers to take time for him/herself for appointments, errands or just free time. Flexible schedules every day of the week.
Consider sharing an hour once a week. What a difference the time makes to our patients, families and you!
We invite you to join our team of exceptional volunteers.
For more information, please call or email (765) 237-5307 ext. 3315 or Kristi.Kennedy@ViaQuestinc.com.
We look forward to meeting you!

Mission Statement
It’s hard to know where to turn for help when facing a serious illness. ViaQuest can improve the quality of life for those living with chronic and terminal diseases and conditions. These diseases slowly decrease an individual’s ability to live life to its fullest. There comes a time when seeking a cure may no longer be possible or in one’s best interest and the focus turns to quality of life. When that happens, ViaQuest Hospice may be the answer. Our care is not focused on the disease, but on pain relief and symptom control, making it easier for you to keep your focus where it should be - on living more fully. An important mission of ViaQuest Hospice is our role to improve end of life care and to provide support for caregivers. We go beyond standard care to bring love, comfort, compassion to enhance the lives we serve. We also recognize the unique need of Veterans and have designed a program to honor, thanks and support those in hospice care.
Description
Founded in 1999 by CEO Rich Johnson, ViaQuest has grown from a single division in Ohio to serving individuals throughout Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania. The name ViaQuest represents the overall mission of the company: a group of people on a mission (or Quest) to change the way (Via) health care services are delivered.
ViaQuest Hospice is Veteran owned and proved an extra layer of support to those facing serious illness. Through a wide range of innovative services referred to as ViaQuest’s Circle of Care, our skilled, dedicated employees ensure that the people we serve are active participants in their own care. Hospice services are provided wherever you consider home.
