    Description

    Your Gift of Time is Precious... Spend it with a Hospice Patient

    Our hospice organization needs compassionate volunteers to provide friendly visits to our patients in the Dover and throughout central Delaware. Being a hospice volunteer is simple, yet profoundly rewarding. There is no medical or personal care involved - just caring from the heart! Visits are based on your schedule and are always close to your home. You will receive extensive support and training. YOU can make a difference by...

    • Providing companionship (from simple conversations to exploring deep feelings)
    • Reading aloud or listening to music together
    • Looking at photos together and sharing memories (life review)
    • Sitting with a patient so caregivers have free time (care giver relief)
    • Journaling (helping the patient record their history)
    • Watching movies or playing games
    • Sharing a quiet moment
    • Simply being present

    Contact Rebekah Welch, Volunteer Coordinator, at 302-533-3800 or rebekahwelch@accentcare.com
