    Description

    Caring for others is a gift, will you share that gift?

    VITAS Healthcare is looking for kind and caring people to help terminally ill patients and their families. Friendly visits, simple errands, providing a listening ear and the gift of friendship at a crucial time can make a real difference in another's life. Yours, too!

    VITAS Healthcare volunteer activities may include: relief care (sit with a patient while the caregiver takes a break); friendly visits to patients and their families at home; driving a patient or family member to appointments; accompanying a patient to a church function, wedding, beauty shop, play, ballgame; run errands to the grocery store, drug store, post office.

    VITAS Healthcare Volunteer orientation is provided free of charge to help you learn the skills required to be an outstanding hospice volunteer. Time and dates are ongoing and flexible.
