Respect. Compassion. Integrity. Make a difference in the life of another person by simply sharing your time, attention, and compassion. Use your creative strengths and interests as you aid in the living of someone who faces the final year of a terminal illness, and in being part of a community that cares for their family.
Our volunteers don't need experience in healthcare - just kindness, reliability, and the willingness to help a neighbor facing a hard time.
Volunteers can provide companionship to a patient, doing activities like singing, reading aloud, chatting, watching tv or movies, listening to music or just holding a hand.
They can provide respite to family members who are exhausted by the task of full-time caregiving, and need a few hours a week to take care of themselves.
Volunteers can even help in our office by writing cards to patients, helping with administrative tasks, and making sure things are running smoothly behind the scenes so our patients get the best care possible.
Volunteers are the heart of hospice. They allow us to go above and beyond, to make our families and patients feel cared for on a deeper level, and to remind them that their community is here for them. If you think this role sounds like a good fit - we'd love to have you!
