Mission
Volunteers in Hospice Care are members of a dedicated group of loyal and sensitive individuals who give of themselves to ensure the mission of Hospice care. That mission is to provide services that meet the needs of patients emotionally, physically, practically and spiritually, as they face the last phase of life, dying from a terminal illness. Hospice reflects a spirit and philosophy of caring that focuses on providing total comfort and dignity along with a celebration of life.
About Us
The Hospice team of nurses, social workers, chaplains, and nursing assistants speak of Hospice Volunteers as "The Heart of Hospice Care." Volunteers support the organization's mission by sharing unique skills in music, the arts, Reiki, Massage, Pet Therapy or simply enhance lives by being a caring presence, offering heightened listening skills, reading stories, prayers or sharing a patient's favorite recorded music. Your visits reduce patient isolation through compassionate companionship.
Volunteers may also choose to help with bereavement, support for families, and/or office help such as filing, data entry and mailings.
