Hospice Volunteers Needed

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Heartland Hospice

Heartland Hospice is actively seeking volunteers in the Wilburton, McAlester, Eufaula, Talihina and Calvin areas to serve hospice patients. We need dedicated people like you to visit patients, help out in the office and maybe sit with someone for a couple of hours so their loved one can have a break or run an errand. Summer time is just around the corner and some patients may need their yard mowed. What other skill set can you bring to the table to help someone in their hour of need? Maybe you quilt, sew or craft. Maybe you're handy with "honey do" projects. We can find a place for you!

Volunteering for Heartland Hospice can be a wonderful, rewarding experience. We need men and women like you who want to help, but may not know where to start or how to get involved. We accept volunteers from ages 16 and up. The good news is, you don't provide hands-on care. You get to provide the extra support to help along the journey of life. Give us a call today!
