Become a Hospice Volunteer and Make a Difference
Hold a hand. Play cards. Tell a story. Make memories.
Do you have an hour each week to change a life? Are you ready for a life-enriching experience? Is helping others especially gratifying for you? Do you enjoy supporting behind the scenes with administrative tasks?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, becoming a hospice volunteer might be the perfect fit for you. Hospice programs rely on the dedication of volunteers, and at RVNAhealth, your contribution can make a significant impact. There is no minimum time requirement or obligation to specific tasks; you choose the type of service that suits you, and we will accommodate it as best we can.
Types of Hospice Volunteer Opportunities:
Family Support Volunteer
- Interact with patients and their families by providing companionship or respite for a loved one by running errands or being there when they can’t.
- Family Support Volunteers do not provide medical or personal care and visit patients wherever they call home.
Administrative Volunteer
- Provide support through organizing and ordering supplies, assembling marketing and new patient materials, and other general office duties.
- Administrative Volunteers typically have no patient contact and assist in both our Ridgefield and New Milford offices.
Both roles require an intensive training program, as mandated by law. A thorough screening process, including a background check, is conducted for all volunteers.

Join us in making a difference. Your time and compassion can brighten someone's day.

Description
RVNAhealth (formerly RVNA or Ridgefield Visiting Nurse Association) is a private, non-profit, mission-driven organization founded and focused on care.

Today, RVNAhealth provides lifelong health care and wellness services and the support and resources to maintain your highest possible level of health, and improve your quality of life and well-being. In collaboration with other healthcare professionals including your own, we provide care to serve all ages, stages and levels of health. This care is offered through our four families of services collectively referred to as 'The Wells"
Our experienced team of caregivers provides home health care services in the comfort of your 'home’ whether it is a private residence, assisted living or skilled nursing facility, or hospital, and also in our 'home’ at the Center for Exceptional Care in Ridgefield, Connecticut, and across the 35+ communities we serve.
