    Description

    Share Your Gift of Music and Bring Joy to a Hospice Patient!

    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.

    If you love to sing or play an instrument, you can share music with a hospice patient in a local nursing facility or patient’s home. This opportunity is especially appealing to music lovers and music therapy students. Typically, we ask that you visit your assigned patient 1-2 hours per week.

    For more information, contact Michelle Storey @ 1-517-513-7008 or mstorey@elara.com
