    Description

    Gentiva Hospice Volunteer

    At Gentiva Hospice, we believe every patient is on a journey filled with challenges and uncertainty – and when they face life-limiting illnesses, we are honored to walk beside them – to comfort the hearts, minds, and bodies of those in need and offer compassion at every step. It is our privilege. It is our mission. If you have a natural gift for empathy and want to make a difference, we can help you be a force for good in the lives of our patients and their loved ones.

    No medical training? No problem! To become a volunteer, all you need is a compassionate heart. Our volunteer training will teach you everything you need to know to be a companion for someone during their end-of-life journey.

    Need flexibility? No problem! In most cases you can choose when and how long you volunteer.

    If you have additional questions or would like to take part in his opportunity, please call 641.755.4114 or email karrie.widener@gentivahs.com
