Are you looking to make a difference in the lives of others? Are you able to provide companionship, company and just a little effort and time? Come join our team and be an Uplifter Volunteer!

Here at Uplift Hospice we believe that even in the end of our life journey, there is still quality of life. This extends not only to our patients but their families, caregivers and loved ones. As an Uplifter Volunteer you are a part of an amazing, dedicated team that helps provide care and comfort to our patients, their families, caregivers and loved ones.

Volunteer opportunities are varied and we realize it is not a "one size fits all" when it comes to volunteering. Visiting with patients can involve assisting with light duty cooking and cleaning, play cards, watching TV, conversation or simply being present. You can provide a moment for the caregiver to take care of tasks as you sit with their loved one.

If you feel that sitting with patients might be too much at first or you are uncertain, you can volunteer with us for activities! We believe in community and engage on a regular basis. We go to assisted living facilities, memory care & group homes. We provide a craft for each visit and most times, a snack or two! The residents and patients love our activities and everyone involved always has an enjoyable, memorable time!

Are you looking for more in office type duties? We can always use helpers around the office. From prepping for facilities to filing - there is always something to do!

Worried about too little time? My favorite saying it is takes many small granules of sand to make a big beach. Every granule counts! So whether you have a half an hour one week and 1 hour the next, we are a team and we make it work!

About Uplift Hospice

Location:

Mission Statement

Redefining the hospice journey into one that families are proud to tell for generations to come.

Description

Uplift Hospice is family-owned and operated by a Mother-and-Son team - Jennifer Lawrie and Owen Lawrie. Jennifer is a Registered Nurse who has worked in hospice for over 10 years. Owen’s background is in business and finance. We feel that having both the clinical and business expertise in the ownership team is critical to being an impactful community partner. Jennifer and Owen feel strongly that company culture and employee satisfaction is far too often neglected and forgotten in healthcare more broadly, but especially in hospice. Therefore, every decision Uplift makes is rooted in making sure our employees are happy, excited, and energetic about who they’re working for and what they’re doing every day. This allows our community assurance that we are able to recruit and retain the most talented clinical and administrative staff in the industry. This results in consistency in the clinical team assigned to facilities and patients, seamless interactions for facility staff, patients, and their families, and the overall highest quality of hospice care. We are always overstaffed on the clinical side as quality of care comes first in everything we do. Our response times are second-to-none, our clinical team is highly experienced in hospice, and our community liaisons make the patient and family experience seamless and comforting by following from the hospital to the home and every step in-between.
