I'm looking for you! If you have a desire to give of your time, a little or an hour a week or more I can help you find what fits your schedule and blesses our patients, caregivers and staff. From sending a birthday card which may be their last birthday they celebrate with loved ones to companionship time listening to life stories(journaling that story for family memories), making a call to check on someone, walking someones dog because they can't anymore and even mailing out letters to the ones that have lost their loved one if hospice patients make you a bit uncomfortable(you can mail out letters, mailers, event invitations, and personal request to the families). Share a skill or craft you love with others. There are so many opportunities we'll find the perfect fit.

Mission Statement
At Enhabit Home Health and Hospice, we believe hospice is no a place, but rather a philosophy of care. Our goal is to bring dignity and comfort home by offering compassionate care to patients and their families during the final stages of life.
Description
Enhabit is looking for volunteers to provide a wide range of services to patients and their families during their final months and weeks of life. Volunteers provide non-medical services and respite time for caregivers and family members. As a hospice volunteer, you will be given choices as to how much and what types of things you want to do.
A few ways you can help as a hospice volunteer is by giving companionship to our patients while their family members can keep doctors appointments, run to the store and take care of banking needs. Playing games, reading to patients and sometimes even journaling memories they'd love to leave for their family. Writing birhday cards and holiday cards as these might be their last ones to celebrate. Making calls once a week to check on supplies and any other needs as you build a relationship and give them someone to talk to on the phone.
