Content: Do you have gifts to share? Are you looking to make a difference? Life Choice Hospice seeks volunteers for a four week training program. Upon completion you will be eligible to join the Life Choice Hospice team whose goal is to provide excellence in end-of-life care. Volunteers may provide compassionate visits, read to, converse with, or play music for patients while providing emotional support and comfort. We welcome your talents and interests. Companion pet visits, craft expression, reiki, massage, and therapeutic touch are among the services performed by volunteers. We also seek veterans who will focus on improving end-of-life care for other veterans, many of whom served in World War II. You will be assigned to people under hospice care in area nursing facilities, and in homes. Consider making a difference by joining the more than 500,000 people, young and old, serving as hospice volunteers.
There is no charge for this course, training and volunteer materials provided.
This program is put on by LIFE CHOICE HOSPICE with the assistance of the Community School @Cape Cod Tech.
