We're Looking For Caring and Compassionate Volunteers! Are You One?

Save to Favorites

We are looking for caring, compassionate volunteers willing to spend a few hours a month helping to support patients and their families. As little as a few hours a month can bring so much support to these patients and their families. On average, hospice volunteers give 4-8 hours per month.

New hospice volunteers participate in free training that is available at your convenience.

Opportunities Available:

• Direct Care Volunteers- Phone calls, in-home visits, running errands for patients, and activities like reading, praying, playing music, etc.
• Bereavement Support Volunteers- There are volunteers, ages 16 and older, who provide emotional support to families who have lost their loved one with hospice through phone calls, mail-outs (cards & letters) and home visits.
• Special Projects Volunteers- These are volunteers of any age who are part of a group or work independently to provide support to the office staff or to provide comfort items for patients such as blankets, attending health fairs, and assisting at nursing facilities.

Benefits:

1. Looks great on resumes!

2. Use us as a reference!

3. Gain medical experience!

4. Obtain a sense of purpose and self-satisfaction!
