Do you have a dog? Is your dog friendly and do they like "pets" from people? We would love for you to visit hospice patients and join our team!
No certification is needed for you dog. Dogs will need to be up to date on their shots. The owners will need to complete a background check and TB shots (provided by us). And we train you.
We try to have you visit patients close to your home- we reimburse mileage. Transportation is necessary, parking is free.
Our volunteers are important to our team and patients so we will respect your schedule.
Our mission is to provide premium comfort care to patients, families and caregivers through an interdisciplinary team approach that understands, respects and meets individual needs. Our vision is to become the leading provider of hospice care. We strive to provide our patients, families and caregivers with the highest level of satisfaction through our strong clinical outcomes and innovative approach by maintaining our core values of devotion, honesty, dignity and respect.
Description
Grane Hospice serves terminally ill patients at the end of their life. We serve patients throughout Southwest PA including Allegheny, Armstrong, Beaver, Butler, Indiana, Washington and Westmoreland counties. Our goal is to treat the patient with dignity and respect while making them comfortable. We have a strong team that consists of Grane Hospice support staff and volunteers.
Volunteers are an important part of the team as we provide special physical, emotional, spiritual, and practical needs to both the patient and family. Part of the goal is to provide comfort and dignity while making the patients comfortable. This is achieved in many different ways, some are hands on and some are in the comfort of your home or our office. Put your special skills and talents to use by helping someone in your community on the end their life journey.
