Join
a Winning Team...
Do
you have a compassionate heart? Do you have as little as two
hours a month to offer? If so, you could be a
HomeCare & Hospice volunteer.
We offer volunteer opportunities in direct
patient care, office
work and fundraising.
Whatever your interests, as a HomeCare & Hospice volunteer
you will experience rewarding and meaningful opportunities.
Patient
Care Volunteers
Patient care volunteers constitute
the largest segment of our volunteer groups. Individuals in this
category visit patients, perform limited personal care, provide
relief for family members, help with house work and more. The
exact duties of a patient volunteer depend greatly on the family’s
needs.
A volunteer can be an invaluable
asset...as a listener - a very special friend who can cry,
laugh, reminisce and provide support to patients and their
families. Often patients who are reluctant to share their
feelings and concerns with family or Hospice staff will open up
to a volunteer.
Office
Volunteers
Office workers provide an invaluable
service. Volunteers perform duties such as filing, mailing,
copying and computer work.
The
HomeCare & Hospice Guild
The Guild serves as a fundraising arm
for HomeCare & Hospice. Each year, Guild members raise
thousands of dollars for Hospice services through their bouquet
sale. Guild members also serve as volunteers for events such as
the Tree of Life Ceremonies, the Hike for Hospice and the Home
& Garden Show.
