Hospice Volunteer: Share Time, Comfort & Companionship

Our hospice organization needs compassionate volunteers to provide friendly visits to our patients in the Dover and throughout central Delaware. Being a hospice volunteer is simple, yet profoundly rewarding. There is no medical or personal care involved - just caring from the heart! Visits are based on your schedule and are always close to your home. You will receive extensive support and training.

YOU can make a difference by...

• Providing companionship (from simple conversations to exploring deep feelings)
• Reading aloud or listening to music together
• Looking at photos together and sharing memories (life review)
• Sitting with a patient so caregivers have free time (care giver relief)
• Journaling (helping the patient record their history)
• Watching movies or playing games
• Sharing a quiet moment
• Simply being present
