Hospice Volunteer Opportunities
Administrative Volunteer
A volunteer with clerical skills can serve a hospice center by helping in the office with simple administrative duties. These duties include writing sympathy cards, helping with mailings and performing data entry.
Art Enrichment Volunteer
艺术丰富志愿者通过艺术为临终关怀的病人和他们的家人提供安慰，娱乐或分心。
Bereavement Volunteer
These volunteers work closely with the hospice’s professional bereavement staff. They assist in duties such as working as a support group facilitator or assisting with mailings to clients and families.
Courier Volunteer
Assist our hospice team with delivering necessary supplies to hospice patients in their homes. Volunteers must have their own transportation, a valid driver’s license and up-to-date insurance.
Hair Care Volunteer
许多临终关怀病人无法离开家去沙龙或理发店理发。我们需要有执照的宇宙学家或理发师，他们可以在病人家里为他们提供造型或理发服务。
Integrative Health Volunteer
An integrative health volunteer provides relaxing and anxiety-reducing therapies to end-of-life patients through Reiki, Healing Touch or aromatherapy.
Volunteers must be licensed.
Legacy Volunteer
遗产志愿者保存病人的故事和记忆。他们多次拜访病人的家，帮助他们讲述他们的生活故事，并用数字录音机记录下来。一旦拜访完成，志愿者将会将故事记录下来，添加图片，并将完成的项目呈现给患者。志愿者还可以给病人的亲人写信或完成其他请求。
Massage Therapy Volunteer
These volunteers provide therapeutic massages to patients. Volunteers must be licensed in massage therapy.
Music Therapy
Music therapy creates an environment that reduces stress and anxiety while connecting patients to their favorite memories. Share your talents either through song or musical instruments to enhance our patients’ quality of life. Music therapy can be done in the patient’s home or at a hospice location.
Respite Volunteer
Hospice volunteers can help by staying with the patient while their caregivers take care of necessary errands. Caregivers also appreciate a visit from a compassionate friend who understands what they’re going through.
Patient Visitor Volunteer
Visit with hospice patients where they’re at, whether it be a private residence, assisted living facility or nursing home. Volunteers can do a wide variety of activities to brighten a patient’s day. These volunteers can provide companionship, play games or cards, help with simple chores, read out loud or watch movies. We work to match volunteers and families so that the time volunteers spend is valuable for everyone. Visitor volunteers do not do personal care or administer medications.
Pet Therapy Volunteer
Provide joy to hospice patients and their families through pet therapy.
Pet certification and vaccination are required.
Photography Volunteer
Sanford Hospice is looking for professional photographers to capture portraits of our hospice patients and their families. Volunteers also may be asked to attend special events, such as veteran pinning ceremonies to photograph patients and provide them a document of the day. These photos are a treasured gift to a hospice patient’s family.
All volunteers must have their own equipment.
Veteran Volunteer
As part of the We Honor Veterans Program, we’re looking for veterans who would like to visit with our veteran patients. Many veterans receiving hospice care appreciate connecting with volunteers who are also veterans, even if they served in a different time or place.
