When you give your time as a volunteer with St. Croix Hospice, you join a team of individuals dedicated to providing patient-centered care and comfort during advanced-stage illnesses. Hospice volunteers offer companionship, compassionate help and support for patients and their loved ones when they need it most. Volunteers provide an empathic, respectful, and caring presence for patients and their loved ones.
We are actively looking for in-person companionship volunteers to help provide social support to patients. Companionship volunteers will travel to the patient's primary residence and provide ongoing social support by visiting, playing games, reading together, etc. We also offer a vet-to-vet companionship program. Companionship volunteers are a vital part of the care team.
The St. Croix Hospice team provides exceptional hospice care with an emphasis on quality of life. Our holistic care model offers physical, emotional, and spiritual support uniquely tailored to a patient’s individual needs and wishes. When you join our team as a volunteer, you’re making a difference in the lives of individuals and families right in your own community.
Schedules are very flexible! Please contact us if you are interested in learning more about this rewarding volunteer opportunity!
