How you helpAre you interested in helping patients and families in your community make the most of the final months, weeks and days of life? Then becoming a hospice volunteer may be the opportunity for you.
About usHospice's holistic approach to care seeks to make patients as comfortable as possible, and to manage symptoms so that their last days may be spent with dignity and quality. Hospice services are provided at home, assisted living, or in long term care facilities. Hospice addresses not only the physical dimensions of terminal illness, but also the practical, emotional and spiritual. As part of its guiding philosophy, hospice pays special attention to the needs of family members as they make this difficult journey.
