Badger Hospice is also in need of a team of volunteers to sit vigil with actively dying patients. At Badger Hospice we believe no one should die alone. Vigil Volunteers will sit with patients while their family is not able to be with them. They can read, play music, or quietly hold our patient's hand during this time. The goal is to be a comforting presence during this transition.
