  • To be called upon for up to 4 hours a week of service
  • Opportunities to practice empathy and compassionate listening
  • A fascinating education about end-of-life issues and goals
  • To provide practical and emotional support to families and hospice patients
  • To gain new friendships and connections
  • To develop knowledge and understanding that improves their own relationships and lives

Interested applicants should contact The Elizabeth Hospice Volunteer Department for an invitation to attend our free, no-obligation 1-hour video / phone Volunteer Orientation session.
