Traditions Health is looking for volunteers like you to donate their time and talent to make a difference in the lives of our hospice patients.
Volunteers provide support and companionship to our patients by listening to their stories, holding their hand, helping with a favorite activity, or many others ways. These activities remind our patients how important they are and how pertinent they are to society as well as offer comfort and dignity.
A volunteer can also allow for a care giver to have time to run to the grocery store, take a walk, or go to a doctor's appointment.
No special skills required except for a willing heart and helping hands. Free training which covers general information about hospice and how it works, volunteer do's and don'ts, and safety information. Requirements for volunteers include background check, TB test, brief physical, and drug screen. We are happy to cover the cost of these requirements. If volunteers are working directly with patients, we ask that they be vaccinated for COVID or be tested for weekly.
We are happy to work with your schedule and will keep you as close to home as possible.

Description
Hospice Volunteers are essential to providing the level of care and support that patients and their loved ones expect from hospice care. The primary goal of a hospice volunteer is to provide empathy and companionship to both the patient and their loved ones during difficult times. The duties of a volunteer vary depending on the needs of the person they are caring for. Part of volunteering may also consist of offering support through community outreach activities, fundraising, or office work. Through participation and engagement, hospice volunteers find value in their devotion to patients, their loved ones, and their community.
