Hospice volunteers are needed for so many important reasons! Our patients may need emotional companionship, a friend to chat with every so often, someone to read their favorite book to them, to write letters for them to long lost family members, someone to come by once a week and walk their beloved dog, run to the store for them to pick up a favorite treat, someone to come over and watch their favorite game show with, or even a compassionate volunteer that can sit with a family that is nervous about their loved ones condition and need a pal to reminisce with. Some volunteers help in the office with admin work, addressing bereavement cards to families, or even writing letters during the holidays! Hospice volunteers have limitless potential to be impactful in a terminally ill perrsons life, and we are blessed to welcome amazing volunteers to our family!
All volunteers potentially have contact with our beloved patients and are required to have a criminal background check for our patient safety...we care about our patients like they are family...:)
