Hospice provides care and support for patients with life-limiting illness, so that they may live their final days with dignity and comfort. Hospice also provides supportive services to family members and loved ones. Volunteers may help in the patient homes, offering respite care, companionship, assisting in errands, providing professional services, and other types of assistance. Some volunteers visit our patients that live in skilled nursing facilities. Other volunteers provide telephone support or may help in the office. Appropriate training is provided.
