Description
Choose a time convenient for you to be a companion for a hospice patient. Our patients love having visitors, and your hour (or two! or three!) will brighten a patient's day! Chat, read, play music, reminisce, bring your registered therapy dog, or just share time together quietly.
You may select the patients you wish to see, as well as determine the times you visit--whatever fits YOUR schedule. This is a great opportunity to earn volunteer hours for students or to build your resume!
For more information or to apply, please email delaney.tittel@heartlandhospice.com or call 614-414-0500.
Join our team of exceptional, caring volunteers!
