Gentiva Hospice Companion - Make time to make a difference - volunteer in your neighborhood!
♡ SaveAbout this opportunity
Every volunteer is like a puzzle piece, ready to fulfill a need which only they can provide. Volunteers can exemplify this ability with our patients in a number of ways; sometimes it’s as simple as providing companionship and listening, holding a hand or giving a needed hug. The possibilities are nearly limitless; playing an instrument, cutting hair, mowing the lawn, even walking dogs, playing games, reading, are all ways volunteers have shown up to enrich the lives of patients! Volunteers provide support to family members as well, by staying with patients while a family member enjoys a moment alone or runs errands.
