A Heart for Others

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Gentiva Hospice

  • 20 people are interested

Enjoy a fulfilling volunteer experience by providing companionship and socialization for patients or short-term respite for caregivers. Reminiscing, watching TV, playing music or just being present with a patient provides meaningful experiences for both the volunteer and patient. Caregivers need breaks for appointments, running errands or just to have lunch with a friend. Veteran to veteran and other specialty volunteers welcome - music or art therapy, crafts, life review recording, pet therapy, spiritual support, beautician and barber services.

Whether you're lending a hand or holding one, you will brighten the life of a patient or their family. If you're ready to share your time and a bit of your heart, let's discuss opportunities available throughout Coweta county.

Days and times are flexible and comprehensive training is provided.

Volunteers also needed in Heard, Troup, and South Fulton areas.
