Responsibilities:
Patient Care Volunteers are part of a patient's care team.
They make home visits to offer companionship for patients and relief for caregivers.
Examples of patient care volunteer opportunities include reading to the patient, assisting with a hobby, listening, running errands, or grocery shopping.
Organizational Volunteers do not work directly with patients and families.
Examples of organizational volunteer opportunities include work in our offices to support our care team or help patients and families through indirect support, such as assisting with our Transitions program, creating special memories for holidays, patient birthdays and anniversaries, planting flowers or mowing a yard for a patient that is unable to continue doing so, and helping with other needs of our patients and families.
Musician Volunteers are professional musicians, choir members, music students and teachers, board certified music therapists, band members, and more, to share music and brighten up the days of all those we serve.
As a Music Volunteer you will be able to provide a beautiful presence through the comfort of your music to our patients, and provide peace to our front line health care staff.
Pet Therapy Volunteers are a wonderful way to share comfort and compassion through interactions with Certified Therapy Pets and Hospice Patients.
A visit from a therapy animal can bring an immense amount of joy, emotional support, and fulfillment to a hospice patient and their family members.
Pet therapy has been proven to decrease pain and stress.
No hospice experience necessary but animal must be a certified and up to date on all vaccinations.

Don't Be Fooled

The fraudster will send a check to the victim who has accepted a job. The check can be for multiple reasons such as signing bonus, supplies, etc. The victim will be instructed to deposit the check and use the money for any of these reasons and then instructed to send the remaining funds to the fraudster. The check will bounce and the victim is left responsible.
