Our volunteers are an essential part of the Brighton team. A hospice volunteer is an individual specifically trained by Brighton Hospice to provide assistance to patients, their families, and the hospice team. As a volunteer, you help fulfill the promise of hospice in many ways. You are the hand to help and to hold, the friendly face that brings warm conversation and welcome respite. Our trained volunteers provide invaluable services. Volunteer tasks can be patient related or non-patient related. Volunteers have flexible time commitment, and no experience or medical background is necessary, as training is provided at no cost. During the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Brighton remains committed to providing excellent care to all patients. Depending on restrictions in your area, volunteer duties may vary during this time.
