Getting mail, a quick phone call to check in, a person to talk to, someone to hold a hand when the day is long. This is what volunteers do, remotely or in person they bring the connection, care and compassion to our patients on their end of life journey.
If you have just an hour or two a week or a month you can make someones day better in your spare time. We can train you in everything you need to know, supply you with anything you need. The scheduling is flexible and we work with your schedule. For remote roles you need to be 16 with parents permission and for in-person non-medical roles you need to be 18. You also need a background check and be in the US.
Do you have a favorite hobby, musical talent, a love of reading? These are all things you can share or maybe you like to knit, crochet or quilt? Our patients can always use shawls, modesty blankets, lap quilts and many other things. Do you have a therapy pet, our patients love visits from certfied therapy pets. Have a talent we don't know about? I am sure we can find a connection with a similar love.
To start the process just respond to this ad and I can get you started. It takes about 2 weeks to get rolling. My name is Kris and I am the rgional volunteer coordinator. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Our patients are in their homes and in facilities all around the area and surrounding towns.
