Description
Amedisys Hospice volunteers offer valuable support to patients and families facing
terminal illnesses. Volunteers do not require any medical background and do not engage in
medical or personal hygiene tasks.

their own schedule and typically commit 1-4 hours a week.

- Offer companionship visits

- Make weekly tuck-in calls
- Veteran/active-duty military visits to veteran patients
- Provide office support
- Make handicraft items for patients

We provide comprehensive training to ensure you feel confident and at ease when volunteering
with our hospice patients.
