ORGANIZATION: Silverado Hospice -South Houston

image_20240624092323

We are looking for new volunteers to use their interviewing and recording/editing skills to record our hospice patients share their life story. Our hope is to allow the patient to leave behind a story, message or anything else they choose for their families to treasure. In addition, video recordings can be used to record family members and loved ones of the patient. This can very helpful, especially if the patient is unable to communicate or share stories. For example, if a patient is in the late stages of Alzheimer’s and is unable to communicate verbally, family and friends can be recorded sharing special stories and memories of that person. Imagine the thrill of a family member being able to hear grandparent’s story in their own words after they have passed away! Please email the information below. Require videorecorder, microphone and editing software. Do you have access to these items? Must be able to interview and video record patient and family members. Are you interested? Do you have related experience? What a part of the city are you available to volunteer in? Are you willing to take a background check, drug and Tuberculosis test? Please respond to this opportunity if interested.

Mission Statement

Silverado Hospice's mission is to affirm the cycle of life by enhancing the quality of living for those at the end of life. The Silverado standard is to care compassionately for patients and their families and to empower those we serve to have quality of life options that afford them comfort and dignity.

Description

Silverado Hospice provides care for terminally ill patients in their home, nursing home or assisted living facilities. Hospice volunteers are ordinary people of all ages with extraordinary love and a common bond concern for others. Volunteers can touch lives in many ways. As little as a few hours a week can truly make a difference in your life and someone else's. Volunteers are an integral part of the Silverado Hospice Circle of Care. Our trained volunteers spend time with patients and families to provide support and love in many ways. They keep patients company, read to them, or take them for walks. They give care relief to weary caregivers, run errands, help in the office and provide bereavement support to grieving families. Individuals with musical, artistic, sewing, and quilting skills are welcome.
