    Description

    Hospice Vigil Volunteer

    Become a Vigil Volunteer – Bring Comfort in Life’s Final Moments

    Do you have a heart for compassion and a desire to make a meaningful difference?

    We are seeking Vigil Volunteers to sit bedside with patients in their final hours, offering presence, peace, and dignity when it matters most.

    What You’ll Do:

    • Provide quiet companionship and comfort to hospice patients
    • Offer support to families during a tender and sacred time
    • Help ensure no one passes alone

    You Are:

    • A good listener with a calm, caring presence
    • Comfortable being with others in moments of vulnerability
    • Reliable and willing to complete hospice volunteer training

    Why It Matters:

    Your presence can be a gift beyond words — a final act of kindness that brings peace to patients and their loved ones.

    Our office is in Simpsonville, but we provide hospice care throughout the greater Greenville County area. Orientation including a background check and drug screening are required. Training, education, and support are provided.
