About the role
Volunteers are an essential part of the team, offering time, compassion, and support to patients, families, and the organization. These roles provide meaningful opportunities to make a difference through companionship, bereavement support, administrative assistance, and end-of-life presence. Volunteers may choose the area in which they prefer to function and the hours they are willing to donate. All duties and responsibilities of volunteers require professionalism, sound judgment, and effective communication skills. We are in need of volunteers for the following roles: Administrative Volunteers: Provide assistance with office functions and hospice-related activities to support daily operations. Bereavement Volunteers: Offer emotional support to bereavement clients under the guidance of the Bereavement Coordinator and Volunteer Coordinator. Patient Care Volunteers: Visit patients and families offering companionship, caregiver relief, errands, and other supportive tasks. Provide Angel/11th-hour support by sitting bedside with actively dying patients. Experience is not necessary as all volunteers go through training before starting their roles.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
