    Description

    Comfort Item Volunteers - Sewing, Crafting, Knitting (Dauphin, Perry, and Cumberland Counties)

    Amedisys Hospice of Harrisburg is proud to offer hand-crafted items to our patients and families as an extra "special touch" to show that we care. Our volunteers construct non-sew blankets for veterans, wheelchair blankets, catheter bag covers, memory pillows, ornaments made out of the donated material provided, and etc.... Amedisys can provide needed items, such as : thread, patterns, pillow stuffing ( or the volunteer may prefer to donate those items) and we can deliver the supplies directly to the volunteer's home if needed. The cost? Time and creativity!

    Do you have an idea of something that you already create that you'd like to bless patients and families with? Let us know!
