We are looking for compassionate people to spend time with individuals with a life-limiting illness. Do you enjoy chatting with others? Do you like to listen to and tell stories? Do you have a crafty hand, a musical bent or appreciate getting a visit? We are looking for you!

As a Direct Patient Volunteer with Traditions Health Hospice, you'll have the opportunity to provide meaningful companionship with patients in their homes or in a care facility. In this role, you would be providing non-medical support to patients as well as their families and caregivers. Volunteers have the chance to make a meaningful difference through simple, yet impactful, acts of kindness and connection.

What might volunteering look like?

• Offering companionship and a listening ear.
• Engaging in social activities such as reading, playing games, or writing letters.
• Providing caregiver relief so family members can rest or run errands.
• Assisting with light household tasks, such as watering plants, walking pets, washing dishes, or emptying trash.

What to Expect:

• Volunteers enjoy the flexibility of creating their own schedules, with visits lasting 1 to 2 hours.
• No medical background is needed-our volunteers do not perform any medical or personal care tasks (e.g., giving baths, assisting with medication, or transferring patients).

Why Volunteer with Us?

• Make a lasting impact on the lives of patients and their loved ones.
• Gain meaningful experiences and connections.
• Sharing COMMUNITY with someone who may just need someone!
