Companionship Visitor -- Accent Care

If you find meaning in helping others there is no better way than voluteering for hospice. Your personal attention and compassion can provide a sense of well being and quality of life for those who are facing a daunting time in their lives. At the same time, the connection you establish will be so rewarding. Older adults have a lot to share about their lives: their accomplishments, their memories, their wisdom, the hardships they have faced, and the history they have witnessed. At accentCare we will match you with an individual you will always remember. We serve all of Rhode Island.
