Are you wanting to share music with a dying patient? Music can invoke such memories of one's youth and joyful times. Music can, also, help with pain management. Compassus is seeking individuals who would be willing to visit with a patient either in their home or a facility and provide them with companionship through the gift of music.
Hospice is about giving comfort, hope and improving quality of life during an individual's last months. Whether you play and instrument, sing or are able to utilize your phone, giving the gift of music not only enrich the patient's life but your own!
If you have a heart full of compassion, we would love to speak with you about sharing your musical talents with some of our patients.
Compassus provides a comprehensive training and orientation. Background checks and TB tests are paid for by Compassus.
