    Description

    Haircut volunteers travel to wherever a hospice patient calls home (private home, skilled nursing facility, etc.) to provide free haircuts with simple styling. Your visits can increase comfort, self-esteem and dignity, even when a patient can no longer leave their home.

    Volunteers must be professionally licensed in Washington to cut hair. We provide comprehensive training to ensure confidence in working with hospice patients.

    You set your own schedule. Even 1 haircut a month makes a difference! You determine where you are willing to serve within Thurston, Mason and Lewis Counties where we provide support to patients.

    Location

    On-site
    Anywhere in Thurston, Mason and Lewis Counties, Lacey, Washington, US
