Looking for volunteers!!

Hospice.  It's a word that brings hopelessness to mind for most people.  It's who you call when there's nothing left to do but "make them comfortable".  Compassionate Care Hospice is seeking compassionate volunteers with big hearts to serve as patient visitors for patients - to bring comfort, caring and compassion to the lives of others. 

Volunteers are needed to serve in a variety of capacities:
  • Friendly patient visitors to share a compassionate presence with patients and their families.
  • Musicians with portable instruments, such as violin, harp, flute and guitar to play music for patients.
  • Event volunteers to staff special events.
  • Administrative volunteers who can do filing, answer phones, accomplish general office tasks and those with good person to person skills. 
  • Bi-lingual volunteers
Volunteers are considered part of the interdisciplinary team process and all are non paying positions.
