Hospice Volunteering

Give the gift of time by becoming a companionship volunteer! Become a comforting presence to a patient on hospice and make a difference with a simple chat, a smile and a hand to hold. Family members cannot always be there so our volunteers fill a need for companionship. Our volunteers are an important and needed part of our care team.
Visits usually are about 1/2 hour and consist of just talking about life experiences, hobbies, travel anything really. sometimes patients like to be read to or listen to music. Sometimes its a warm hand to hold. We have opportunities available in the Green Bay and Fox Valley area. The visits are set up by the volunteer with the coordinator to insure a good fit into your life and routines. Plenty of flexibility. We have opportunities for veteran to veteran visits and pet companion visits that can be discussed with the coordinator. There is training , a background check and a TB blood draw needed to become a volunteer at no cost to you.
