Volunteer: Hospice Volunteer OpportunityThe Medical Team (Hospice) goal is NOT to end life, but to make the end of life as full and meaningful as possible. Our society tends to run from death and make it a dreadful experience. Death is one of those four letter words. We work to help the patient and family recognize and come to terms with issues of grief and loss and to transform these final times into a beautiful process. It is a journey through pain, but it can be a journey rich with meaning and joy. And that is why we are here. Hospice does not hasten death but allows a person to experience a death with dignity and as pain-free as possible. We want life to be lived to the fullest until the final breath is taken. After the death of one of our patients, we continue to follow-up with the family for the next 13 months through our bereavement program.
Everyone will experience death at some point in their life, whether it is a relative, close family member, or pet. Your experience as a volunteer can be a fundamental benefit to our patients and their families, whether that means participating in activities with the patient or simply being by their bedside for social support.
