Become Compassionate Hospice Volunteer in Sonoma County

Your greatest gifts are your time caring nature, willingness to listen, and collaboration with our care giving team! Volunteering can be as simple as sitting by the bedside, reading a book, or playing music for our patients and their family members, as well as proving respite care, and emotional and social support.

Sutter Care at Home - Santa Rosa Hospice is looking for compassionate and outstanding volunteers throughout Sonoma County!

No matter if you are a college student, parent, between the jobs, retired from your professional career or actively working, you can deepen or learn new interpersonal skills through your simple compassionate presence with our patients!

We will provide you with our informative training and ongoing support. We also welcome certified professionals who wish to provide massage/art/music/pet therapy per patient request.
