Spending time with our patients who are terminally ill, and being present for them as companions and building a relationship. We are not asking you to perform any medical care. We are for companionship and friendship only. There are many ways to help, like reading a book, watching TV, taking them for a view in their wheel chair, crafting at a facility or with things they have at home. There are a lot of possibilities that can be done when we put our minds to making the day of someone that is lonely a little better.
Please at least let us meet and you decide that you can offer. If you need credit for school, we will provide the hours for you when they are entered after a visit. We do community service hours as well, however, there is a screening we perform for all volunteers before we get you started. We do not have COVID restrictions currently be will provide you with masks and other PPE as needed.
