Seeking caring hearts and helping hands for hospice patient volunteers.. We are Gentiva Hospice If your looking to give your time to your community what better way than to care for the people who live near you? Hospice patients sometimes just need someone to drop by and visit or give them a call and chat about the weather, our Veterans enjoy other Veterans talking about service they served and how times have changed, etc. Our office staff enjoy extra hands to help keep things running smoothly and orderly. Time is a precious gift. How do you share your gift? Who do you share your gift with?

Welcome! I'm so glad you're checking out our post from Gentiva Hospice of McMinnville, TN. Currently our Volunteer Dept seeks to find 2 individuals for visiting patients for companionship: at home, in assisted living facility, nursing facility, boarding home. Must have a valid state issued ID Must have auto insurance if you are a driver (If you do not drive, you can still do visits via public transportation to facilities, boarding homes, etc.) Must have or willing to have a TB test completed (TB Gold Series we pay for this) Must be willing to complete 13hr of training per year for Medicaid / Medicare rules & regulations. Do you enjoy reading? Some of our patients enjoy someone to read romance, westerns, & the Bible... Occasionally, we have someone that just needs a little help around the house; sweep, laundry, trash out, etc. Our patients need companionship (18yrs & up) and would love to have you by their side for an hour or so while their caregiver goes to pay bills or buy groceries, etc. you would be surprised what this can do for someone with little to no family living near by. During this time the patient may enjoy rest, cards, tv, reading, quiet played music, etc. Our Admin volunteers (16 yrs & up) can work in the office and help file, fax, breakdown old charts, help setup for events, put away stock, check dates on supplies, answer phones, etc. Volunteering is the gift of time... How you give your gift does matter! Sharing your time with others is more of a blessing than we realize until we need it ourselves. If you just want to ask questions or have concerns, please do call me anytime! Melissa Crouch VC 931-259-8057 cell 931-474-8015 office
