Gentiva Hospice’s volunteers provide emotional support and companionship, comfort, and respite to our patients and families. All of our patients have been diagnosed with a life-limiting illness. We strive to enable our patients to live their last days in the most fulfilling manner possible, whether they choose to do so in their home or in a nursing facility. Are you a good listener? Are you dependable? Do you have a desire to help others? If so, you would be a great hospice volunteer! No medical background is necessary. Our volunteers come from a variety of backgrounds, professions, and age groups. Not sure how you can help? A few suggestions: 1. Sitting with a patient while the caregiver leaves the home to visit, shop, attend church, pursue hobbies/interests, attend meetings, or perhaps go to the barber shop/beauty salon. 2. Sitting with a patient so the family/caregiver can simply take a nap or rest. 3. Preparing and delivering meals to the patient and family. 4. Assist in preparing birthday or holiday cards for mailing. 5. Read to a patient. 6. Sing to a patient. 7. Laugh with a patient. 8. Simply sit by the bedside and hold the hand of a patient. Volunteers can give as much or as little time as their schedules allow. There is not a set number of hours required. As patient/family needs differ so do volunteer hours. Whether you have a few minutes or several hours to give, this is the program for you.

Amazing opportunity! Gentiva is looking for caring individuals to share their voice and time in our Tuck in Call program. Tuck in Calls is a program where in home hospice patients (and their family members) receive "check-in" phone calls by Gentiva Volunteers. If you enjoy talking on the phone and have time to make a few phone calls, you may be a perfect volunteer for this opportunity. Volunteers work from their own homes or from the Gentiva office, by checking on Genitva's patients in their homes. Gentiva Tuck in Call Volunteers inquire about how patients and families are doing, provide grief support and/or simply listen. Times and dates are ongoing and flexible. Make these phone calls once a week. Whenever and whatever time works best for you.
