Volunteers are an essential part of Hospice. Volunteers bring their own unique skills and gifts and can help in a variety of roles such as:

• Staying with the patient to give the caregiver a break;
• Providing companionship;
• Calling or visiting bereaved family members;
• Assisting with support groups;
• Office help such as mailing, copying, computer work, filing;
• Craft projects such as the caregiver baskets, quilts, memorial candles, holiday activities, baking;
• Assisting with events such as the memorial services, volunteer training, the Community Memory Tree, garage sales, National Hospice month activities, All- American Breakfast.
