Hospice Pen Pal - Virtual

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Cardinal Hospice Care

  • 1 person is interested

For those who want to help but prefer a more flexible option, virtual volunteers can send cards, letters, and become pen pals with our patients, all from the comfort of their home. You can assist our bereavement coordinator by making calls to grieving families providing a listening ear or help put together monthly mailing flyers from home.

In addition to these meaningful connections, volunteers also have the chance to assist with event planning, activities, and administrative tasks when available.

If you’re looking to make a difference in someone’s life, share stories, interests, and show kindness, we would love for you to be part of our team!

About Cardinal Hospice Care

Location:

3884 Henderson Drive Ext., Jacksonville, NC 28546, US

Mission Statement

Cardinal Hospice Care is committed to delivering a continuum of competent, dependable, compassionate, and valuable hospice services to eligible individuals in their home setting(private home or nursing facility).

Description

We are a provider of hospice services only. Our hospice program of care includes a Medical Director, Nurses, Home Health Aides, Medical Social Worker, Chaplains, Physical, Occupational, and Speech Therapies, and Volunteers. Facilities are once again letting volunteers enter to make visits. Volunteers can also visits patients who reside in private homes as requested. Some patients have elected to continue receiving cheerful cards/notes, but for those who desire visits, the amount of time for a visit is up to you. We would appreciate a minimum of one hour a week - more is even better as we are required to match 5% of staff hours, but if you can only give 30 minutes, then that will suffice.
