    Description

    Share a Smile, Offer Comfort - Become a Hospice Visitor Companion!

    Volunteering with Faith Hospice could be the most meaningful thing you ever do. By helping us provide compassion, comfort, and care to those at the end of life, you will be enriching your own life as well. One does not need a special talent or expertise to make a difference in the lives of hospice patients. All that is needed is a kind servant's heart.

    Here are a few ways hospice volunteers can make an impact:

    • Offering companionship by sitting, listening to patient/family members, playing games, or reading to a patient
    • Providing relief for caregivers

    **We are also recruiting Veterans who would like to visit other Veterans on hospice care.

    Location

    On-site
    Grand Rapids, Michigan, US
