Bedside companion

Miller Hospice has a growing team of kind and caring people to help terminally ill patients and their families - just by being there at the very end of life. Our desire is that no one dies all alone - whether in a home, hospital, nursing home, VA center.

'Golden hour' (vigil) volunteers should be comfortable supporting the patient and family's unique needs during this important time. Giving the family a break, allowing them to get some sleep or gather together away from the patient. This is a crucial time to provide quiet, gentle presence. If the patient has no family available to sit with them, YOU would be able to give them the comfort of your presence - as much as you are able to. Our goal is to have a large pool of volunteers so we can split up into various shifts and meet the needs of the volunteers as well as the patients. This is an On Call opportunity.

Orientation and training provided. Golden hour volunteers will first go through the process of becoming Miller Hospice Volunteers.
