Ways to help

Creative Expression

Everyone has a special talent — quilting, writing poetry, cooking — and a special way of bringing comfort to those in need. Residential Hospice patients and families are especially touched when volunteers share these meaningful gifts at such a critical point in their lives.

Companionship

Hospice volunteers may visit the home or long-term care facility and spend time reading or talking to the patient, writing letters, taking walks, or recording the patient’s personal story for future generations.

Volunteers with clerical skills are a valuable addition to our team. Among the many office duties they perform are preparing and processing mail, sending emails, coordinating printing, and answering phones. These are all important contributions that keep our programs running smoothly.

Respite Care and Support

Our volunteers provide comfort and support in many ways, including relieving primary caregivers from their daily routines. They can further support the family with shopping, cooking and light housekeeping, yard work, running errands — even lending a much-appreciated ear to family members who just need someone to listen.
