Animals, especially dogs can offer unconditional love, companionship, and comfort to patients at end of life. We are looking for certified canine volunteers and their handlers to visit with hospice patients on a weekly or monthly basis. Do you and your canine have 4 hours to give each month? Then, we would love to talk with you!

Mission Statement

LHC Group was founded on a fundamental principle - it’s all about helping people. It continues to serve as our mission statement and guiding light as we nurture a unique company culture of family and community. Volunteers are a vital part of that culture. In each and every community we serve, we are dedicated to being more than just clinicians and support staff - we are friends, neighbors, and family. That’s our commitment to the people we serve, and it’s the standard every member of the LHC Group family - volunteer or otherwise - is dedicated to living up to each and every day.

Description

Hospice volunteers offer a special gift. Whether it's sharing companionship with a person in the final chapter of life, offering support to family members and caregivers, or helping with community outreach and administrative support, the contributions of volunteers are essential to the important work provided by hospice. We welcome volunteers from all aspects of life. Whether you contribute your time and talents directly with patients or prefer to work behind the scenes, we invite you to become a member of a dedicated group of compassionate caregivers who serve as vital members of our hospice team.
