About
Many students, especially in the healthcare industry, are looking to gain direct patient care volunteer hours for their degree. Hospice is a great fit to make that happen. We provide exactly what a healthcare student needs to fulfill those hours for their degree. We provide students with the opportunity to make a difference in the life of a terminally ill patient. Our patient care volunteers will provide companionship and support to patient and their families with things such as: Friendly visits, writing letters, Reading to patients, Light housekeeping, and Meal preparation. Every patient has specific needs that we match up volunteers to those specific needs. Not only will you gain hours for a degree, but you will also have an experience that you can only get in hospice and end of life care. We also offer administrative work in office for volunteers if they do not wish to participate in the field.
