    Description

    Love to Talk? Make It Matter.

    Use your gift of gab to bring comfort and connection to hospice patients. Just one hour a week can make a meaningful difference.

    No need to worry if you’re new to hospice—our Volunteer Coordinator will guide you every step of the way. You’ll have a supportive volunteer team, and you can shadow visits until you feel comfortable on your own.

    You choose the patients and locations you’re comfortable with, and create a schedule that fits your life.

    Volunteers set their own schedules, and most visits are about one hour per week.
