    Description

    Share in the Gift of Storytelling - Hospice Life Review Volunteers Needed

    The story of a person’s life is a gift. Compassus Hospice is seeking volunteers to help patients reflect on their memories and capture them for their families. Through gentle conversation and prompts, you can encourage patients to share meaningful moments, stories, and lessons learned.

    This process not only brings joy and comfort to the patient, but it also creates a keepsake for their loved ones to cherish for years to come. Free training and support are provided to help you guide the storytelling process.

    Your time and presence can help honor a life lived and preserve a lasting legacy.
