    Description

    Become a Hospice Companion Volunteer - Abington

    Bring comfort, joy, and connection to someone who needs it most.

    As a Companion Volunteer, you’ll spend time with patients in their homes or care facilities—wherever they feel most comfortable. Your presence offers more than company; it brings emotional support and a sense of peace during life’s most tender moments.

    What you’ll do:

    • Share conversations and listen to stories
    • Play games or enjoy music together
    • Read aloud or watch TV side by side
    • Take gentle walks or simply sit quietly
    • Offer companionship and a caring heart

    No medical tasks—just your time, kindness, and willingness to be there.

    All training is provided, so you’ll feel confident and supported every step of the way.

    Why volunteer?

    Your gift of presence can make a profound difference. You’ll brighten someone’s day, ease loneliness, and create meaningful connections.

    Ready to make an impact?

    Join us as a Hospice Companion Volunteer and help bring comfort when it matters most.
