If you are searching for a way to make a difference in the lives of others, You Belong Here! Hospice volunteers are a valuable part of our care team. Based on your interests and preferences, you will receive specific volunteer training to help improve the quality of life for others.
We may like to provide your services as someone to provide light housework, run errands or just sit and talk. To avoid caregiver burn out, you may volunteer to sit with a patient so their loved one can take short breaks.
- Engage with our hospice patients through any of the following:
- Provide companionship and emotional support.
- Provide a listening ear.
- Encourage them to share life experiences.
- Play games (cards, board games, etc.)
- Watch TV with them.
- Read to them.
- Sing/play an instrument to them.
No medical experience needed. Volunteers DO NOT provide any hands-on care (such as changing a diaper, dispensing medications, etc.) You will only provide companionship and socialization. The patients you will support are in your community.
COVID vaccinations are no longer required.
