Are you a good listener?

When nearing the end of life, many people want to participate in life review, which is simply sharing stories and events that have occurred over the course of their lives. This helps someone to process the fact that their end is near and appreciate their own story and in turn, can teach us so much about life and ourselves.

We are looking for compassionate individuals to listen to these stories and be a companion as our patients near their final days.

If you are interested in learning more, please contact Jessica, Volunteer Services Coordinator: jessicalalonde@accentcare.com.
