Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Heartland Hospice

Do you want to make a difference? Do you like helping others? If so, you are in the right place! At Heatland Hospice, our volunteers are committed to serving patients and caregivers by easing their burdens through very difficult times. Friendly visit tasks include visiting, reading, writing a letter, or listening. You may also have an opportunity to run errands or sit with patients in order to relieve the caregiver(s). In addition, our administrative volunteers provide a valuable service by helping with tasks in the office.

The role of the volunteer is an essential part of the Heartland Hospice Team and they are truly considered the "heart of hospice".
