    More than just a haircut- Restoring Dignity for Hospice Patients

    Elara Caring, one of the nation’s largest providers of home-based care, is looking for compassionate volunteers willing to donate their time to provide exceptional end-of-life care to local hospice patients and their families.

    Licensed barbers and hairdressers are needed to provide monthly haircut or hairstyling in a local nursing facility or patient’s home. These visits help restore dignity and offer a sense of renewal. Typically we ask that you visit your assigned patient 1-2 times per month.

    For more information, contact <enter your first name> at <enter your phone number> or <enter your email>.
