Become a Compassionate Hospice Volunteer in Rohnert Park/Cotati

No matter if you are a college student, parent, between jobs, or retired from your professional career, you can deepen or learn new interpersonal skills through your simple compassionate presence with our patients!

The greatest gifts you can give are your time, caring nature, willingness to listen, and collaboration with our care giving team! Volunteering can be as simple as sitting by the bedside, reading a book or running a quick errand for our patients and their family members, proving respite care, emotional and spiritual support as needed and capable.

We will provide you with our informative training and ongoing support. We also welcome certified professionals who wish to provide massage/art/music therapy per patient request.

Our volunteers are required to receive or show verification of an annual Flu shot and Tuberculin skin test or blood test, provide immunization records or titers showing immunity to MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) and Varicella, show proof of TDAP (tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis), complete a drug screen and a health screening, consent to a criminal background check, and submit a copy of current driver’s license and auto insurance. Sutter will provide health screening and any necessary tests or vaccinations.

Call 707-535-5790 for more information.

Thank you.
