Bristol Hospice of Colorado Springs is looking for 11th hour volunteers. These volunteers are called to sit with patients that are actively dying or have passed.

Vigil Volunteers can help by: Being a calm presence Sitting with the patient and/or family Talking softly or singing to the patient Sharing a sacred silence Holding hands, massaging hands or feet Praying, reading inspirational text or scripture Playing music If you are interested in being a part of this very sacred time in a person's life, please contact us for more information.

Animals connect to people and make their days a little brighter. Bristol Hospice is looking for pet owners who have animals that can visit 4 hours a month to our patients at their place of residence (which may be in an independent living community, assisted living, skilled nursing facility or memory unit). Many of our patients miss having an animal in their lives and this brings them such joy! We do ask that your pet had completed a basic training class, be registered as a Therapy Dog ($35.00 cost) with ADA or USA Service Dogs, have liability insurance and they be up to date with their shots. We are excited to meet you and your amazing animal!
