Hospice Volunteers Needed - Make a Difference Today!

The Uplift Hospice Team is actively recruiting volunteers to join our amazing team of "Uplifters". As an Uplifter, you will be part of the team that provides support to our patients, their caregivers and families. As a hospice volunteer, you play a crucial role in providing comfort and compassion during a challenging time.

Some of the Volunteer Responsibilities may include:

• Companionship: Reading books, playing music, playing cards, crafts, painting nails, going for walks, or attending facility events
• Support: Engaging in conversations, empathetic listening, offering comfort, or simply sitting quietly, providing a reassuring presence
• Caregiver Respite: Providing relief for family members and caregivers by staying with the patient, allowing them to take breaks, attend appointments, or tend to personal needs.
• Light cooking/cleaning
• Volunteers do not and are not to perform medical treatment of any nature*

Our volunteers are a part of our care team and will receive training in hospice care, care principles and continuing/ongoing support from our team to ensure you feel prepared and confident in your role.

You may think, I want to but only have a little amount of time or a schedule that is too varied, that is not the case here! Flexible hours to fit your schedule, anywhere from a couple of hours to more however if you only have half an hour one week and an hour the next, that works! You choose the times that work best for you!
