Companionship Visits Needed.
♡ SaveAbout this opportunity
No medical training? No problem!To become a hospice volunteer, all you need is a compassionate heart. Our volunteer training will teach you everything you need to know to be a companion for someone during their end-of-life journey. You’ll learn valuable skills in grief counseling, spiritual and emotional support, and end-of-life care. Every person has a gift, we want to help yours make an impact and shine."When I realized that a lot of people die alone, it broke my heart. As a hospice volunteer, I have the opportunity to put smiles on faces jut by helping to put a puzzle together, watch a TV show, or just share stories. The reward is the smiles on their faces, the bonds that we form, and knowledge that we gain, and I wouldn’t trade that." - Nadja P.We're specifically looking for volunteers to visit folks in their home in the greater Portland area. Not for you? Wrong town? Our volunteer coordinators will help you match your talents with opportunities in your area.
