Do you have a need to fulfill volunteer hours - or are you simply looking for a meaningful activity to fill your time? Please consider working with our fun and active crew at Brighton Hospice! Brighton Hospice is a growing company in Oregon, and we are seeking volunteers in the Eugene area to provide contact and support for hospice patients and their families. If you have the desire and flexibility around volunteering, we would love it if you were interested in seeing some of our patients in these communities - and some in their homes as well. Volunteer can provide social support by spending time with patients to decrease isolation. Volunteers are invited to sing, play instruments, read, color, or share other activities with hospice patients. Volunteers can be trained to assist with providing bereavement support for loved ones of patients. Additionally, there is opportunity for volunteers interested in clerical work and office management to work closely with staff on tasks around the office to support the hospice team. If this is intriguing to you, please fill out the inquiry form and our Volunteer Coordinator, Chris, will be in touch with you. Thank you.
