Patient Companion Volunteer- St. Francois County

We are currently seeking Patient Support Volunteers in the St. Francois County area to provide companionship and emotional support to our patients. Our patients reside in homes, nursing homes and assisted living facilities. How you serve and how often is completely up to you!

As a volunteer, you can brighten someone's day by:

• Reading books or sharing stories
• Watch TV with them.
• Playing music or singing favorite songs
• Assisting with writing letters or cards
• Playing games and engaging in activities
• Simply being a caring presence and listening ear

Sometimes the greatest gift you can give is your time. A friendly visit can bring comfort, reduce loneliness, and create lasting memories for patients and their families.

If you are interested in becoming a volunteer or would like more information, please contact Kate Whaley, Volunteer Coordinator, at mary.whaley@gentivahs.com or call (573) 705-3475.

Join us in making every moment matter. We look forward to welcoming you to our volunteer family!
