Enhabit Health is looking for a hospice volunteer to companionship to patients 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.

We also have other options for volunteering. A few ways you can help as a hospice volunteer is by running errands for patients and families, playing games or reading with patients, walking and caring for family pets, or even creating a photo album of the patient and their family. Very rewarding service. You'll get the opportunity to touch someones life in many ways.
