Volunteers sought for hospice training
Care Dimensions, the region’s largest provider of hospice care, will hold online training classes for those interested in becoming volunteers for the nonprofit organization.
You can make a difference in a patient’s life by:
• Engaging in a shared interest or hobby
• Helping with letter-writing or life review
• Visiting with your approved dog
• Reading to the patient
• Listening and by providing a supportive, comforting presence.
Volunteers visit patients in their homes, in facilities, and at our hospice homes. If patient visits are not the right fit, you can volunteer in other ways, such as providing administrative office support or making check-in phone calls to current patients or bereaved family members.
Training will be held via Zoom on Mondays and Wednesdays, 9-11 a.m., October 16-November 8. Register by October 2. For more information or to sign up, please go to www.CareDimensions.org/Volunteers, or email VolunteerInfo@CareDimensions.org.
