Hospice Volunteer

At Heartland Hospice, we depend on our volunteers to help us provide support, respect, and care our patients and their families need.

Our Direct Care Volunteers help enrich the lives of our patients by serving as an additional support to patients and families dealing with a terminal illness and end-of-life issues. Support is provided in a variety of ways, including the provision of companionship and socialization to patients, or offering respite to stressed caregivers. Direct Care Volunteers may also make calls to patients and families ensuring they have the supplies they need for the weekend.

Additionally, we have Administrative Volunteers whoprovide support to office personnel through clerical and administrative functions. An administrative volunteer may assist with answering telephones, filing, making copies, data entry or helping to create admission packets. They might help with compiling and mailing Bereavement letters, sympathy cards or the planning of the Annual Memorial Service.

As a volunteer, you would help us decide which tasks you are comfortable performing.
