Description
Volunteers are critically important for visiting patients at the end of life that do not have family or friends that regularly visit. VITAS Healthcare is looking for Patient Care Volunteers to visit patients residing in their own homes to increase socialization, provide pampering and comfort. Volunteers offer companionship, play music and games, read to patients, share hobbies and help in other meaningful ways. They provide specific, non-medical care through friendly visits.
The days and times for volunteering are flexible according to your availability. Any time you can contribute is greatly appreciated. For more information on volunteering at VITAS, please visit https://vitas.com/volunteer or call (314)682-3400.
