Help make ordinary moments, extraordinary.
If you have a kind heart, are a good listener, and want your volunteer time to truly mean something, this opportunity may be the perfect fit.
AdvisaCare Home Care and Hospice exists to support people in the most challenging times of their lives. The volunteer is a part of a professional care team that comes alongside patients and families to assist, mostly as a companion and friend.
WHAT DOES A HOSPICE VOLUNTEER IN PATIENT SUPPORT DO?
Patient needs vary, but these are some of the common things we do:
- Listen to stories and learn about pictures from a photo album
- Have a conversation about their life
- Sit with them and listen to music or watch TV
- Give the family a short respite
- Do their hobbies with them
- Get them a small snack or water
- Be present in the moment like you would for a good friend
If this sounds like something you'd like to do, you will receive hospice classroom training (in our Gilbert Office location), supplemental healthcare training, and will have a joint first patient visit with the volunteer coordinator so you feel comfortable.
We are looking for an hour each week, but if you have more time to spare, that's ok too!
Volunteers will visit at the patient's home or a care facility so you will need reliable transportation and a valid driver'slicense.
Our patients are eagerly waiting to meet their new volunteer friend. If you are interested in more information or have an questions, please reach out!
Thank you for your consideration. The time you give is a gift they treasure!
