Mission Statement

Community Hospice is committed to providing supportive, palliative, and loving care to terminally ill clients and their families through an interdisciplinary team.

Description

The services you will give as a Community Home Care & Hospice volunteer will profoundly improve the quality of our patient’s lives. Friendly visits enable families to keep their loved ones at home, around the people they love, and the things they love. Assisting with errands helps a tired family caregiver cope with their many challenges and allows them time with their loved one. Simply holding a patient’s hand can ease their mind and console their spirit. Volunteering takes no advanced medical training or great commitment.
It can be as simple as reading to, or spending time with a patient a few hours
a week. It’s small deeds of kindness that so profoundly enhance the lives
of our patients and those who love them.

I am a caregiver full-time with a paid caregiver taking care of my husband when I work only. I know how important it is for a caregiver to have just some down time w/o working (caregiver or Job) put paying the high cost of having a person stand by for a loved one is Expensive. In my life, I changed jobs with another caregiver for a day and it was as if it was the first time for us both. I took care of their loved one, they took care of mine and it was the best day of both our lives. We experienced differant issues and regained the strength to care for our own loved ones once again. Giving a caregiver a time out keeps people from being institutionalized and caregivers from being victims of health issues themselves.
