    Description

    Reiki Volunteers comfort VITAS patients at the end of life-and their families- with relaxing and pain reducing therapeutic touch.

    A terminally ill patient's sense of isolation from the work around him or her is often made worse by the lack of comforting human touch. Reiki Volunteers provide compassionate touch, relaxation, sense of well-being, emotional health and a state of balance. Volunteering your professional services to a VITAS patient makes a different in the patients life.

    All VITAS Volunteers receive free orientation in end-of-life care. Our Reiki Volunteers must have at least a Level 2 certificate.

    For more information about VITAS Volunteer Services visit https://www.vitas.com/volunteer or contact Beth Tong at 614-822-2700 beth.tong@vitas.com
