    Description

    If you are a compassionate individual who is interested in bringing comfort and support to people as they journey toward the end of their lives, please consider becoming a volunteer today.

    Experience the rewards of helping others! Providing a person with support, dignity and respect at the end of life is a meaningful and fulfilling way to give back. Giving even a small amount of time each month has a significant impact on people facing end of life and is also a gift to their families and caregivers.

    Our volunteers play an important part in offering comfort, support and hope to hospice patients and their loved ones. And there is no experience needed!

    As a hospice volunteer, you may choose to interact directly with our patients with in-person visits, or you may choose to help with administrative tasks in our office. It's up to you what type of tasks you would like to do, and also the kind of patients you are connected with. Your schedule is up to you- you may volunteer as many hours as you like with weekly or monthly visits.

    If you and or a loved one has ever experienced hospice care, you already know the value of its services. If you are looking for a rewarding way to give back, please consider becoming a hospice volunteer and make a difference by providing patients with compassion, companionship, and caring.
