ORGANIZATION: Abbey Hospice

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 13 people are interested

Patient volunteers are needed to serve as companions to our Hospice patients and their primary caregivers. The opportunity is excellent for those going into the fields of nursing/social work, chaplaincy, etc. Retired individuals who had professional careers in these areas also make great volunteers. The number of hours required is determined by your availability and the patient/family requests. If you want a truly rewarding volunteer experience, this can be it!
