    Description

    Caregivers need care too.

    Taking care of someone with a serious illness can be overwhelming. Hospice volunteers provide companionship visits so caregivers can take a short break, run errands, or simply rest.

    Volunteers might:

    • Sit and talk with the patient

    • Read, listen to music, or play games

    • Provide a calm presence while the caregiver steps away

    Just a few hours a month can bring relief to a family.
