Companionship Volunteer for Hospice - Kingman

If you are looking for an opportunity to provide some companionship and make a difference in people's lives, consider volunteering with us!

Companionship can include any of the following options:

• Sitting and talking
• Playing games
• Writing letters
• Reading
• Playing music
• Listening to a patient tell stories
• Running errands
• Providing light housekeeping
• Providing a break for the caregiver

Any time spent with them is greatly appreciated by patients and their family.

Patient companionship can also provide respite for caregivers, if they need a break to go run errands, get groceries or just have some alone time after caring for their loved one all day.
