    Description

    Just think how nice a haircut and style feels when you can longer leave your home. Our hospice patients enjoy being pampered, looking good on days that can be dark. If you are a licensed hair professional and you have the heart and the patience to help, we would love to hear from you!

    There is an onboarding process and some training to become and accepted volunteer and Kris our volunteer coordinator can help with all of it. Our patients are in their homes or in facilities all over the Bedminster and Bridgewater area. The times are flexible and work around your availability. This is such a needed service for our patients. Nothing makes you feel better than a bit of pampering and a new haircut.

    We look forward to speaking with you!
