ORGANIZATION: Guiding Light Hospice

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 5 people are interested

We are looking for wonderful people to join our team and create some beautiful memories while gardening with seniors in nursing communities. This is ideal for anyone who enjoys gardening and sharing their time with others. Whether by yourself or with family or friends, we would love for you to join our team and help us with creating container gardens and sprucing up the gardens for seniors to enjoy on beautiful mornings or evenings. If you would like to help but have restrictions that prevent you but are willing to donate a plant, we would love to add you to our Gardening Volunteers Program. Please reach out to Tammy Webb, VC @ 210.585.2335 or vc@guidinghospice.com for more information. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Mission Statement

In all that we do, our goal is to act with understanding and compassion while providing exceptional physical, spiritual and emotional care.

Description

Guiding Light Hospice is a non-denomination, registered, community based hospice care agency licensed by State of Texas Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) and Medicare (CMS) and Accredited by Community Health Accreditation Program (CHAP).

The diagnosis of a life limiting illness causes immeasurable emotional distress for patients and their loved ones. The pain and symptoms associated with these conditions can become unbearable and decisions about care and treatment are often overwhelming and difficult to make. Guiding Light Hospice provides hospice care and other related services to assist families dealing with these tough times in the Greater San Antonio area.
