    Description

    Recently Retired and have 4 Hours per Week?

    Constellation Health Services' Hospice Program is looking for people to visit individuals who have a terminal illness. Seeking individuals who have the ability to listen deeply,an interest in and compassion for others, good boundaries and self-care, and meet people where they are in both energy and tone. Volunteers may spend time in conversation, read to a patient, look through photos together, share music or videos, offer a compassionate presence, or provide other meaningful support based on the patient’s interests and needs.

    Join our compassionate hospice team, serve your community, and enjoy a flexible volunteer schedule. Just a few hours each month can bring comfort, dignity, and connection to someone nearing the end of life.
