VIGIL/ANGEL VOLUNTEERS
Angels or vigil volunteers are called upon when end of life is near. One of our goals with Hospice care is that no one should pass away alone. Patients (men and women just like us) would love someone to visit, share stories, play music, hold their hand or just sit quietly with them so they are not alone. Not only could you be a great support to the client you will may also be a great support to the family or friends who need support at this very difficult time.
Training is free and at your convenience. You have the support of our team and other volunteers
