Hospice of the Western Reserve is an organization that provides skill and care that surpasses others. It provides dignity and respect to patients and their families during a time of serious illness, including end of life conditions. It provides countless possibilities for care. The rewards for me as a volunteer far exceed the work and time I provide. Our patients, families, and employees of Hospice are so appreciative and give back so much experience and insight to us as volunteers. It is a privilege to be able to help take care of our patients.

I began volunteering here 13 years ago and have since become an employee. I still volunteer. I sit vigil with dying patients, do friendly visits, make check-in phone calls to patients, and help at special events. What I love about the agency is the dedication of the staff and volunteers in supporting patients and their families at this difficult time.
