Join Heartland Hospice as a Companion Volunteer!

Companion volunteers bring the gift of friendship to our patients in a home setting, assisted living facility, or skilled nursing facility. They enhance quality of life through regular visits by offering support, companionship, and assistance with non-medical tasks to ensure that patients spend their final days in dignity and comfort.

Service hours are flexible and scheduled according to your availability and the location. Companion volunteers provide enrichment and support in many ways!

  • Hold a hand and share a story
  • Read, sing, and listen
  • Perform light housekeeping
  • Watch a movie
  • Play cards or make a craft together

We will work with your schedule! Contact the Volunteer Coordinator with any questions at fallon.lamprakes@heartlandhospice.com

About Heartland Hospice Services of NWI

Location:

5265 Commerce Blvd, Suite A, Crown Point, IN 46307, US

Mission Statement

To provide exceptional care with empathy for our patients and their families so they may live with comfort, dignity, and respect.

Description

Heartland Hospice provides care to patients wherever they call home: in the house they've lived in for years, a skilled nursing center, an assisted living facility or independent living facility. Every patient is different, with different challenges, different needs, different family and friends, so the care we give each patient is different.

Heartland volunteers offer support, companionship and practical, compassionate help. Some interact directly with patients and families, while others prefer to work behind the scenes in the office setting. Flexible scheduling is available!

*Serving patients and their families in Northwest Indiana*
