Do you want to make a difference in someone's life? Join the team of "Ultimate Givers" at Crossroads Hospice. Share your time with someone in need through making visits with hospice patients in your community. We invite you to read, share photos, play music, take a trip down memory lane, visit with your pet, have a laugh, or simply bring a smile to someone's face.
You not only will make a difference in someone's life, but you will have a renewed self confidence, a sense of accomplishment, and new friends. Also, you won't want to miss the annual volunteer appreciation event!
You decide how much time you can give a month; we will match your interests and schedule.
We work all over Northeast Ohio, going to our patient calls home (private house/apartment, nursing home, assisted living facility). We strive to keep our volunteers within a 15 minute drive from the patient(s) they visit - so you can volunteer right in your local community!

Description
OUR DIFFERENCE
We ask our patients to "Expect More" from us with one-of-a-kind programs like:
- Gift of a Day: Patients are asked, "If you had one day to live, what would you want it to look like?" Our staff, volunteers, and local businesses work together to bring these heart-warming "Gifts" to life.
- Evenmore Care: We have lower-than-average patient-to-staff ratio that allow us to see patients virtually every day. More patient contact means we can identify an increased or sudden decline and initiate our Watch Program
- Watch Program: Patients are closely monitored through multiple daily visits to better recognize when passing may be imminent, at which point we exhaust every effort to be by their side.
- Veteran Program: Honoring patients who served in the military to protect our country. Staff and Volunteers are educated and trained in caring for veterans at the end-of-life.
- Grief Recovery Program: A special 12 week program, led by our bereavement counselors, helps participants effectively cope with the pain caused by loss
