When you volunteer with us, you join a circle of dedicated people working together to make a difference. You become a valuable member of our support team whether your caring for patients, helping around the office or in the community.
What you need to volunteer
To join our team of dedicated certified volunteers, we have a few requirements including:
- A minimum 1 year commitment
- A background check which we provide at no charge
- Two reference forms
- An interview with the director of volunteer services or volunteer coordinator
- Hospice training which we provide. If you are volunteering to care for patients, you will be trained over two days and two evenings. There is a small fee for training and materials
- Tuberculosis test, which we provide at no cost, if you are volunteering with patients
- Other training, as necessary
- Dedication to our mission, patient & family confidentiality, and safety
- If you have had a loss of a close friend or family member in the past year, we ask that you wait one year before volunteering with our patients. During that time you are welcome to volunteer in our offices, or on special events and various projects
