    💜 What to Expect from Our Volunteer Team

    When you join the Enhabit Hospice volunteer team, you’re not just signing up to help — you’re becoming part of a compassionate, supportive, and dedicated community that makes a real difference every day. Our volunteers come from all walks of life — students, professionals, retirees, and community members — united by a shared commitment to bringing comfort, dignity, and connection to patients and families.

    Here’s what you can expect:

    • 🤝 Support & Guidance: Our Volunteer Coordinator will guide you through every step — from training to patient visits — so you always feel confident and prepared.
    • 🧑‍⚕️ Team Connection: Even though most visits are done independently, you’ll never feel alone. We stay connected through quarterly trainings, monthly volunteer support meetings, and special events.
    • 🕐 Flexibility: You choose the type of volunteering and schedule that works best for you — from patient visits and caregiver support to office tasks and events.
    • 💜 Meaningful Impact: Your presence offers companionship, eases loneliness, and brings joy to those who need it most. Many volunteers say their time with hospice patients is one of the most rewarding experiences of their lives.

    At Enhabit, volunteers are not “extra” — they’re a core part of the care team. Your contributions are deeply valued, and you’ll always have the support, appreciation, and connection you need to succeed.
