We are looking for a Bilingual volunteer to visit with our hospice patients to provide companionship and support. We are looking for someone that is a good listener, empathetic, and is interested in volunteering at least 1 hour per week.

Our volunteers are full members of our hospice team and often form close ties with the patient and their family. In our Volunteer Orientation class you will understand some of the challenges that face patients and families and ways you can bring quality of life and compassionate care to them.

As a hospice volunteer you will learn about the hospice philosophy, communicating with patients and families, family dynamics, spiritual care and the grief process.

Please consider joining our team as we honor life and offer hope to those who need us most.

For additional information, please contact:
