Description
Ever wanted to volunteer with hospice? Kaiser hospice volunteers support terminally ill patients and their families whether they live in facilities or at home. Volunteers may help with meal preparation, light housekeeping, or gardening. Or, they may visit patients living in facilities and help by reading out loud, going for a walk, writing letters, playing games, or simply being a caring presence. And, if you own a registered pet-assisted therapy dog, you can even visit hospice patients with your pet.
