Bereavement Volunteer
ORGANIZATION: Cardinal Hospice Care
Please visit the new page to apply.
Cardinal Hospice Care is now looking for volunteers who can help our bereavement coordinator with some tasks such as sending out mail, providing our bereaved families with scripted phone call to see how they are doing and assist with group events/planning. There are just a few of the many tasks that can be done as a bereavement volunteer.
Primarily, our bereavement volunteers will be able to meet our bereavement coordinator at one of our office locations (Smithfield, Greensboro, Kinston, New Bern and Jacksonville) to complete these tasks. Depending on the tasks at hand and your volunteer experience, some tasks can be completed from your home.
Our bereavement volunteers must complete the following requirements:
1. Complete our application in full
2. Pass an NC background check. For those who have not lived in the state for at least five consecutive years, you will be asked to have your fingerprints submitted for a federal background check.
3. Complete our volunteer training program. This program is 100% online and can be completed at your own pace.
4. Interview with our bereavement coordinator and volunteer coordinator to ensure compatibility.

Mission Statement
Cardinal Hospice Care is committed to delivering a continuum of competent, dependable, compassionate, and valuable hospice services to eligible individuals in their home setting(private home or nursing facility).
Description
We are a provider of hospice services only. Our hospice program of care includes a Medical Director, Nurses, Home Health Aides, Medical Social Worker, Chaplains, Physical, Occupational, and Speech Therapies, and Volunteers. Facilities are once again letting volunteers enter to make visits. Volunteers can also visits patients who reside in private homes as requested. Some patients have elected to continue receiving cheerful cards/notes, but for those who desire visits, the amount of time for a visit is up to you. We would appreciate a minimum of one hour a week - more is even better as we are required to match 5% of staff hours, but if you can only give 30 minutes, then that will suffice.
