Description
Many volunteers decide to assist with hospice following the death of a loved one from their own lives. Rather than focusing on death, hospice volunteering offers the opportunity to help someone find fulfillment and comfort during the final days of their life.
Suncrest welcomes the unique abilities and talents volunteers bring with them, allowing volunteers to support someone's dignified end-of-life in many ways.
