Hospice is seeking new Volunteers for support in Cambridge, MN.

It’s all about giving your attentive presence to another - you focus on your assigned patient to be a "companion". We’re looking for people with big hearts, who are good listeners, and okay with just being quiet sometimes and sitting with a patient too. We request that you have approximately 1-3 hours per week available whenever assigned to a patient, have good personal boundaries and the ability to keep all visits confidential. Our volunteers repeatedly tell us and others; they’ve gained so much more from this volunteer work than they have ever given. You may offer companionship, provide respite to caregivers, assist with writing/reading and answer other patient and family needs. At end of life your support is greatly appreciated by our staff and those we serve! If you are a veteran, you have the opportunity to become a companion to another veteran who is now a hospice patient Allina Health's hospice program is a "We Honor Vet's" Level 4 Hospice and we are building upon this commitment to honor and support our veterans at end of life.
