About this Opportunity

💜 Become a Bereavement Hospice Volunteer 💜

Support families on their journey of healing.

At Enhabit Hospice, care doesn’t end when a patient passes away. Our commitment continues by supporting families through their grief and healing journey — for up to 13 months after their loved one’s death. That’s where bereavement volunteers make a powerful difference.

🌿 What Bereavement Volunteers Do:

  • 📞 Make Supportive Calls: Reach out to grieving families to check in, listen, and offer comfort.
  • 🏡 Provide Visits: Offer companionship and emotional support through in-person visits when families need someone to talk to.
  • ✉️ Assist with Mailings: Help prepare and send bereavement cards, newsletters, and resources that remind families they’re not alone.
  • 🕯️ Memorial Service Planning & Execution: Play a vital role in our annual memorial service — from baking cookies and decorating to welcoming guests, speaking, or sharing readings.
  • 💜 Spiritual Support: Help guide patients and families along their spiritual path as they navigate grief, honoring their loved one’s memory in meaningful ways.

📅 Commitment:

Bereavement support is a required service in hospice care and is offered for up to 13 months after a patient’s passing. As a volunteer, you become an essential part of that mission — ensuring families feel supported, comforted, and cared for long after their loss.

🤝 Why It Matters:

Grief can be overwhelming, and having someone to walk beside you makes a difference. Bereavement volunteers bring compassion, connection, and hope to families during one of life’s most difficult times — and help them find peace and healing.
