The spirit of hospice volunteering is borne from a genuine desire to give comfort, peace, and care to patients, caregivers, and families during the end of life. Our volunteers participate in a wide variety of areas including companionship, direct patient care and bereavement support for patients and families of the Hospice Program. Our volunteers also donate their talents in clerical work, sewing, knitting, crocheting and gardening. As a hospice volunteer, you become part of a person’s life when you are needed most.
