    Become a Hospice Volunteer and Make a Difference Across Rural Kansas

    Do you live in the Wichita area and want to make a meaningful impact? Enhabit Hospice is looking for compassionate volunteers willing to travel to nearby rural communities to visit patients who don’t have many visitors and would deeply cherish your time.

    💜 What You’ll Do:

    • Provide companionship and emotional support to patients in their homes or care facilities.
    • Read, share stories, listen, or simply offer a peaceful presence.
    • Support families and help patients feel valued and remembered during a meaningful chapter of life.

    📍 Where You’re Needed:

    Enhabit serves patients within a 60-mile radius of our Wichita office — including small towns and farming communities where extra volunteer support makes a huge difference.

    🌟 Why Volunteer Outside Wichita:

    • Many rural patients have fewer visitors — your presence truly matters.
    • Experience the joy of making a difference beyond your neighborhood.
    • Flexible schedules — volunteer as little as a few hours a month.
    • We provide training, ongoing support, and mileage reimbursement options.

    🚘 Your willingness to go the extra mile — literally — can bring comfort, connection, and hope to neighbors who need it most.
