    Description

    Hospice Companion

    Just one hour of hospice volunteering can create a lifelong impact! Volunteers are a crucial part of an interdisciplinary hospice care team. Hospice volunteers offer comfort, relief, and essential support at the end of life.

    Volunteer visits with hospice patients are an easy way to make meaningful connections in your community. Companionship can be as easy as holding a hand or simply being present. This can also provide caregivers with a well-deserved break.

    Do you have a talent or skill to share, a service animal to love, some spare time to invest, or required volunteer hours to serve? Call (719) 723-7504 to discover your role on the CenterCare team today!
