Life is full of blessings. People of faith are called to help those in various kinds of need - to be God's hands, feet, and heart to those in our community that need an additional bit of compassion. This is especially true, including family members, of those who are in the dying process. Assisteo Hospice is currently looking for volunteers to minister to our hospice families. If you have a caring heart, are a good listener, have compassion for others, and some time to give, we can use you! As we are strongly concerned with the unique needs of veterans, we are also looking for those who are active duty or former members of the service. Assisteo provides training and on-going supervision and in-services to support our volunteers. You will never do this work alone! Please prayerfully consider this rewarding opportunity to make a difference in the lives of others who are in a very vulnerable time of their lives.

The camaraderie of veterans is an undeniable and extraordinary truth. Veterans at end of life, in hospice, have specific needs that best met by other members of the military. If you are a veteran or active duty, please consider being a part of this experience by volunteering in hospice. Volunteers spend time in life review and reminiscing and being present with and supporting the veteran during this final mission. We know that many times this is when veterans remember what they experienced in the military and can benefit from being able to share these with a fellow veteran. The process of life review allows them to put what they experienced and how it affected their lives into perspective. And the veterans who volunteer are given the opportunity to learn about themselves and the depth of their commitment through this experience. Training is provided along with supervision that supports the work that is being done. COVID vaccinations are required. Assisteo Hospice has offices in the greater Phoenix and Prescott areas.

"Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and life to everything." - Plato Assisteo Hospice is seeking volunteers with musical talent and abilities to join us in bringing the gift of music to our end of life patients, their families, and residents in facilities. Music volunteers can play piano/keyboard, guitars, or any other instruments, bringing peace, memories, and energy for those who have limited connection with others outside of their homes. Studies have shown that music helps reduce anxiety, stress, and depression. In dementia patients, it shows that brain areas linked to musical memory are relatively undamaged by the disease. Volunteers will be given training in all things hospice, given supervision, and will become a valued member of our team. If you are interested and/or have any questions, please call Barbara at 480-286-0339 or email bhopkins@assisteohospice.com
