At Gentiva Hospice, volunteers are indispensable to the patients and families we serve, and are key members of our hospice care team.
We are specifically looking for a volunteer who can play guitar or other instruments for patients and provide relaxing, inspiring music. If you are a music lover, you know the psychological and spiritual benefits of music. Help our patients relive their glory days by playing some old classics, or create an atmosphere of peace and tranquility with hymns or a simple tune.
We ask that volunteers be available to visit with patients for about 1-3 hours a week. We are flexible with YOUR schedule and respectful of YOUR time.
ORIENTATION
Gentiva hospice volunteers are trained in the goals and philosophy of hospice care, as well as the care and comfort of the hospice patient.
Orientation sessions are held at the Gentiva Hospice office (2 Easton Oval).
Through their caring, compassion, and time given to hospice patients, our volunteers continue to make an invaluable contribution to community, personal emotional and spiritual growth, and greater appreciation for life.
Training provided. Background check, fingerprinting, drug test, and TB screening required (at Gentiva's expense). Volunteers visiting patients must be at least 18 years old.
