Volunteer for Hospice (Milwaukee County)

Are you a Veteran, retired, or a couple located in Milwaukee County looking to do something meaningful with your spare time?

If this describes you, Preceptor Hospice has an opportunity for you to become a Hospice Volunteer. Become part of a team that provides care, compassion, and the final wishes to patients during their final journey.

A Preceptor Hospice Volunteer will become a trained individual who provides visits and support to patients and their families. You do not need any prior medical experience. All you need is to a willingness to be present with a patient during their final life journey.

This is how you can help :

• Visit with the patient, on your time schedule, where they live
• Assist with letter writing or other projects
• Read to the patient or join them in watching a favorite TV program
• Play games with the patient
• Take the patient outside or for a walk
• Reminisce with them about their military career, profession, family, and listen to their stories
• Be a comforting support and presence

This is a volunteer role and does not provide an hourly wage or other compensation
