Volunteers and Staff Members Love Collaborating

Many hospice patients in nursing homes spend their final days without visitors, whether due to distance, loss, or other circumstances. Your presence can change that.

Baptist Hospice is seeking compassionate volunteers to visit hospice patients, offering companionship, conversation, and comfort during their last journey of life.

Why Volunteer?

  • Provide emotional support and brighten someone's day.
  • Be a listening ear, a friendly smile, or simply a comforting presence.
  • Help improve the quality of life for patients who may otherwise feel alone.

Your time and compassion can bring dignity, warmth, and connection to those nearing the end of life. Even a short visit can create moments of joy and lasting memories for those in their final chapter.

Become a hospice volunteer today and give the priceless gift of presence. Sign up now to make a difference in the lives of others!
