If you enjoy talking on the phone and have time to make a few phone calls, you may be a perfect Bereavement Telephone Assurance (BTAP) Volunteer. VITAS BTAP volunteers make phone calls to bereaved family members after the hospice patient's death. These short phone calls can go a long way in making a difference in the lives of those coping with grief. Use your compassion, your listening skills and your time, enhanced by training and coaching from VITAS. Hours are flexible and calls can be made from your home.

Hospice volunteers visiting nursing home patients lessen the burden on family members who may be too far away to play an active role in their loved one's life. With hospice training, you will find that your skill sets are sharpened and new ones emerge. Hospice volunteers are trained in communication skills, family dynamics and how to make a positive difference for patients and their caregivers. After you complete the required orientation, VITAS-trained volunteers are prepared to visit nursing homes and assisted living facilities to provide relief care for: caregivers, offer companionship and pampering to the patient, sit vigil, provide love with Paw Pals visits, and help in other meaningful ways.

VITAS Healthcare is looking for people who love to sew and who are able to share their skills with hospice patients and families. A Memory Bear, sewn by a volunteer with compassion and love, is a forever friend who can ease a hurting heart after the death of a VITAS hospice patient. Sewn from a favorite pair of jeans, a pullover top, dress, bathrobe or nightgown, a Memory Bear may recall the closeness of a loved one, bring a smile to someone in distress, or offer a sense of security to a child who feels alone after the loss of a parent or sibling. This is a great opportunity for you to give back to the community. For more information about VITAS Volunteer Services visit https://www.vitas.com/volunteer
