Recruiting Organization: SouthernCare Hospice - Muncie, Indiana

At Southerncare Hospice Services, hospice care is more than keeping patients comfortable at the end of their lives. Our compassionate, expert clinicians surround patients and their families with the physical, emotional and spiritual support they need to be able to focus on making the most of the time they have together. Our lives are not measured by what we get, but by what we give. If you have a natural gift for empathy and want to make a difference, we can help you be a force for good in the lives of those most in need.

No medical training?No problem! To become a volunteer, all you need is a compassionate heart. Our volunteer training will teach you everything you need to know to be a companion for someone during their end-of-life journey. You’ll learn valuable skills in grief counseling, spiritual and emotional support, and end-of-life care.

Every person has a gift. Our volunteer coordinators will help you find that special something that makes your care truly special and then match your talents with opportunities in your area. Find your superpower - how you serve is up to you! Here are just some of the things our volunteers are doing that make a real difference in the lives of our patients and their families:

  • Holding a hand
  • Sharing a story
  • Listening
  • Reading
  • Singing
  • Running errands
  • Playing a game
  • Baking
  • Gardening
  • Providing administrative support
  • Providing *Veteran-to-Veteran support

We are honored to serve those who have served our country. Our approach to caring for our Veterans focuses on respectful inquiry, compassionate listening, and grateful acknowledgment for a life of dedication. We are also active partners with the We Honor Veterans program. There are some things that only a soldier understands. If you’re a Veteran looking for a way to give back, we invite you to consider becoming a volunteer. Our *Veteran volunteers show up in the lives of our patients and their families - to trade stories, show appreciation, and share moments of kindness when it matters most.

Be the change you want to see in the world.

Become a volunteer.

As a hospice volunteer, you become a valuable partof our care team and play a vital role in improving the quality of life for those in our care. Contact us today and our hospice volunteer coordinator will help you find the best way to help.
