    Description

    Definition of a hospice volunteer: someone who wants to make a difference. Good Samaritan Hospice services patients in the six surrounding counties: Allegheny, Armstrong, Beaver, Butler, Lawrence, and Westmoreland. GSH is looking for volunteers in any of the above mentioned counties who would be willing to visit with patients in their homes or facilities. Ultimately, these visits would entail providing companionship/building relationships with the patients and also give caregivers a time of respite. GSH volunteers play a variety of roles throughout our volunteer program. We're always looking for people who are pet or music therapists, who like to cook/bake, or who would enjoy helping out at special events. Not only do we serve patients in their homes, but our patients also can go to our three inpatient unit in Wexford for symptom management or respite. These units are also filled with volunteers who visit patients and families there. Whether our volunteers are holding a patient's hand, cooking a meal, praying with families, and much more, they all make a difference in their own special way.
