    Description

    Hospice Volunteer: Dementia Focused - Chippewa Falls

    Lily Hospice actively cares for patients living with dementia. If you have skills and/or interest in working with this population, we would love to talk with you about joining our volunteer team. We provide full training and support.

    Many hospice patients need and want someone to spend time with. This is especially true for people living with dementia. If you already have skills in this area, let's talk. If you don't have skills but want to learn, let's talk.

    At Lily Hospice, we care for our patients in the comfort of their home. For some, home might be a private residence, while others might reside in an assisted living or nursing home/health center. Visitors are needed throughout the area. We do take into account your location to assign visits that are within or near your own community.

    Our Commitment to You

    • A flexible schedule at a location that is convenient for you;
    • Consistent and accessible staff support from our hospice team;
    • Training in working with people who are experiencing dementia;
    • Ongoing guidance & education to ensure that you are comfortable in your role.

    This volunteer opportunity is available through our Eau Claire office. Contact Laura Volunteer Services, at 715-492-2633 or lcunningham@lilyhealthcare.org for more information on volunteering with Lily Hospice.
