Halifax Health – Hospice seeks caring, supportive and dedicated volunteers to provide assistance at its Southeast and West Volusia Care Centers located in Edgewater and Orange City.
At Halifax Health – Hospice Care Centers, volunteer support roles can be tailored to one’s interest. Volunteers can choose to help prepare meals; socialize with patients and families; or serve as a receptionist answering phones and greeting visitors. Those who can sew and quilt are needed as well, along with those who can assist with clerical duties, including data entry. Licensed massage therapists, cosmetologists, pet therapists, artists and veterans who would like to donate their time and services are welcome.
Halifax Health – Hospice also seeks volunteers who can visit patient and nursing homes or assisted living facilities to socialize and provide respite for caregivers.
