Mission Statement

Our mission is to deliver the best home-based care for our patients; whether it is recovery and rehabilitation after an operation or injury, care focused on chronic disease empowerment, palliative care for those with a terminal illness, hospice care at the end of life or pediatric care for the medically dependent.

Description

Our volunteers’ goal is to provide companionship to our patients. One of the greatest gifts you can give to another is your time.
Below are some examples of what this would look like...

Be present * Provide a listening ear * Tell a story * Sing
Read a book * Play cards * Help record the patient's life / write letters
Take the patient for a walk * Provide respite for the caregiver
Lead an activity in a facility * Pet Therapy * Assist in the office
11th hour volunteers - sit with (at a bedside) a patient who is actively dying.
The biggest thing our volunteers can do is, be a friend.
