Weekend Companion- Vitality Hospice Respite Volunteer
♡ SaveAbout this opportunity
Weekends can be a nice time to offer your time to our patients and their families. If in a facility, that is when facility staffing drops to the minimum, so increased volunteer visits can ward off feelings of loneliness. In a private home, that is when a family member caring for a loved one could have opportunities to see grandchildren's sporting games or other family gatherings, that they would otherwise miss without having your support by staying with the patient.Facility visits can be about an hour (per patient) but private home visits would be about 3 hours.If you are looking for a place to do good, please consider Vitality Hospice.
About Vitality Hospice and Palliative Care
Vitality Hospice and Palliative care is patient driven and clinician owned. The founder is a hospice and palliative care certified nurse practitioner who strives to promote care that enhances quality of life, helping patients enjoy each day. The organization is team driven and open to change as needed. As a volunteer for our organization your impact is not just on patient care but our culture, as you are an integral part of our team! We have 3 offices, servicing our communities: Langhorne, PA covers Bucks & Montgomery Counties in PA, Wall, NJ covers Middlesex, Monmouth and Ocean Counties in NJ, and Burlington, NJ covers Burlington, Camden, Gloucester and Mercer Counties in NJ. As a volunteer you will serve in the area that is comfortable for you to get to. Most volunteers serve the community that they are in, as that is where our patients are; the need to travel to any of the offices is rare.
