Do you speak spanish? We have an opportunity with some patients that speak spanish. Can you offer comfort and connection to another Spanish speaker?
As a volunteer in a non-medical support role here are some of the things you could do:
If you have a little more time you can do respite care so the caregivers can run errands or rest, maybe a little light tidying up, water the plants, small things that make huge differences. Never under estimate how one hour or more of your time can bring so much joy and comfort to someone on the final journey and their families.
