Are you that compassionate individual who is eager to help but your schedule makes it difficult to be on-site to volunteer? As a Virtual Hospice Companion, you will be that periodic welcome phone or online visit for a patient in hospice care. Here’s a way to give back and make a difference from anywhere. Remote volunteering is flexible, inclusive, and impactful. If you have a caring heart, Horizon Home Care and Hospice will provide training, especially centered around therapeutic communication with the dying and the grieving.
Horizon Home Care and Hospice is certified by Joint Commission and reports to the State Board. As required, you should plan on 10-15 hours of orientation structured to your schedule.
Virtual, phone and online volunteers are a key part of a patient’s care team. This opportunity is flexible and meaningful; your impact will be clear. While your comforting virtual contact will brighten someone’s day, you will be amazed how your day is brightened as well.
Please feel free to reach out to us today, to apply or just to make an inquiry. We'd love to hear from you!
