    Description

    Friends Needed - Retirees & Veterans Welcome

    "A friend is someone who helps you when you are down, and if they can’t they lay down beside you and listen." - Winnie the Pooh.

    Elara Caring Hospice is seeking compassionate and caring individuals to be companions to patients as they near the end of their life. Patients in nursing homes and assisted living facilities in Defiance are yearning for a friend to spend time with them to ease their loneliness and bring them joy. You could be that person! Don’t miss out on such an amazing opportunity to not only bring joy to another individual but to learn from them as well.

    If you have a busy schedule (don’t we all), that’s okay! Take a leap, you won’t regret it! Volunteer Coordinator, Kate Lankey, would be happy to help connect you!

    Please send an email if you have any questions: klankey@elara.com
