Rivercross Hospice is looking for dependable and reliable volunteers to help support the office staff in Muskogee. Duties may include answering phones, filing, assembling packets and binders, and data entry.
Volunteers are vital members of the hospice patient’s care team. Volunteers are trained to listen and provide companionship for our patients during their end-of-life journey. Through screening and orientation, our volunteers understand the hospice philosophy to provide as much comfort and quality of life to our patients as possible.
Volunteers provide companionship in many different ways; reading to patients, doing crafts, taking them outside in their wheelchair, accompanying them to a meal, playing cards, writing letters, and sometimes simply by sitting quietly next to a patients bedside. All of our volunteers are trained to provide companionship, and some of them bring extra areas of skill with them, such as massage, music, and pet therapy.
It is our goal to provide a volunteer for every patient who would like companionship. We are always looking for passionate, caring people who would like to give of themselves in this capacity. All who are interested can contact the Rivercross Volunteer Coordinator at either etaylor@rivercrosshospice.com or call/text at 918.798.0404
