    Description

    Our goal at Kansas City Hospice & Palliative Care is to ensure that our patients remain comfortable in their final months. Volunteer massage therapists can help by providing light, stress-relieving massage for homebound patients or those in long-term care facilities or hospice houses.

    We try to match volunteers with patients in their preferred geographical areas, but we appreciate if you are also willing to occasionally travel to more distant areas if the need arises.

    The gift of your time and skill could mean so much to a patient and their grateful caregiver. Even one massage a month makes a difference!

    Location

    On-site
    Kansas City, Missouri, US
