Volunteer: Patient Support in Henderson, Polk, Rutherford, or Transylvania Counties

Provide support to hospice patients and their caregivers in the home. Volunteers are assigned for weekly visits which typically last up to 3 hours. These visits allow the caregiver to run errands, make appointments, and tend to their own wellbeing. Volunteers provide a compassionate, listening ear for life review and storytelling. They also are there as a calming presence while patients are asleep. If you enjoy meeting new people and are comfortable in a variety of situations, this is a great opportunity for you to serve others!
