    Description

    Patient Companion Volunteer

    We are looking for patient volunteers who are looking to make a meaningful difference to patients and families dealing with terminal illness and end of life. Patient Volunteers provide compassionate support to patients and families through companionship, conversation, and socialization. Volunteers may also provide families with a brief opportunity to step away, rest, or attend to personal needs while knowing their loved one has caring support.

    Our volunteers are such a critical role here at Gentiva in providing support through some of life's most challenging times. Whether just a listening ear, or companionship and presence our volunteers truly make a difference and leave an impact.

    Please reach out to Annie McConnell - Volunteer Coordinator if you are interested or have any questions! We would love to have you join our amazing team of volunteers!
