Hospice volunteers are an important part of the specialized team of caregivers, dedicated to providing comfort and care to patients and families struggling with life-limiting illness. Services are provided wherever the patient calls home (personal residence, assisted living, nursing home, etc.)
Hospice volunteers help patients live the highest quality of life for whatever time remains. Volunteers can help in many ways, including offering companionship, memory making and life reviews, allowing caregivers/family members time to take care of themselves, light housekeeping, and running errands like groceries!
