Being a caregiver to a loved one at the end of life is a stressful job. With Covid-19 complicating matters, stress has taken on new meaning. Join the volunteers of Gateway Hospice and provide relief to a caregiver. Caregiver Relief Services offers opportunity for a caregiver to take time for themselves. Having a volunteer as part of the care team allows time to run errands, attend to personal appointments, take a walk or catch a needed nap. Gateway Hospice Volunteer Services is looking for a few special individuals in Allegheny West and Beaver County who want to join our team and support patients and families during this time of crisis. We provide training, PPE and other safety measures to keep you healthy while visiting hospice patients in their homes.

America's Veterans have done everything asked of them in their mission to serve our country. We believe it is never too late to give them a hero's welcome home. That's why Gateway Hospice partners with the We Honor Veterans program to serve those who have served us. Gateway Hospice is looking for volunteers, Veterans, and non-Veterans to help bring this mission to life. Volunteers will lead pinning ceremonies and deliver We Honor Veterans certificates to our hospice patients who are Veterans and/or a Spouse of a Veteran (as they made a sacrifice for our country, too). Volunteers will also be invited to our Veterans Day events and Veteran Ceremonies we have throughout the year at area assisted-living facilities, nursing homes, and senior centers. Please join in on our mission today - we will not be successful without the participation of a volunteer team. We need We Honor Veterans Volunteers in Allegheny, Washington, Butler, Beaver, Westmoreland, and Fayette Counties. To learn more or sign-up to volunteer with Gateway Hospice's We Honor Veterans Program, please call us at 412-536-2020 or email Suzanne Ferguson at sferguson@gatewayhospice.com. We look forward to hearing from you!

Virtual Opportunity
CAN YOU SEW? Will you donate your skills for a great cause? We have two sewing needs. The first sewing need...Fidget Aprons The isolation from COVID-19 has created more suffering in our patients who have Dementia and Alzheimer's. A Fidget Apron will help. A fidget apron is designed for Alzheimer's and Dementia patients because they need activity and "fidget. Sensory stimulation has been shown to not only bring enjoyment and fun to people living with Alzheimer’s but also to fight anxiety and depression while increasing social interaction. Sensory stimulation can also help people stay independent for longer, promote understanding and a sense of belonging as well as help people express how they are feeling. The second sewing need...Adult Bibs Want to help? We need your nimble fingers and creative spirit! Contact Gateway Hospice Volunteer Coordinator, Suzanne Ferguson at sferguson@gatewayhospice.com or 412-536-2020.
