COLLEGE STUDENTS! Can you spare an hour for an elderly hospice patient? In return, you could gain invaluable patient interaction experience!

CorsoCare Hospice is seeking compassionate, empathetic college students who are going into the medical, nursing or social work field and are willing to give their time and supportive presence by visiting hospice patients at Danbury Mentor.You can share your time with our patients in many ways including reading to them, taking walks, playing cards, watching TV, chatting or some other low-key activity the patient feels up to doing. Sometimes just sitting with them is enough.You will be provided ongoing one-on-one staff support throughout your service with us and will be invited to education opportunities and appreciation events.If you have any questions, or need further information, please contact Nikki Gerber, Volunteer Recruiting Specialist/Administrative Assistant, at (248) 260-8257 or [email protected].
