Volunteer: College Students - Remote Volunteer Opportunity - Richmond, IN Area

No matter who you are, you've got something to offer to hospice patients. Typically, the needs are simple companionship and friendship, emotional support, someone to listen-but the small things you can do make an enormous difference in someone's life. Volunteers are supervised by a volunteer coordinator and are supported by other members of the patient care team. The Amedisys Hospice approach to... care creates a patient and family environment of home, comfort and dignity. This approach is extended through our volunteers, who are a vital part of the care team. We offer different types of volunteer options direct care, indirect care, professional, bereavement, and administrative. College students are welcome to apply to join our internship program enabling them to meet their school's internship requirement while giving back to their community. Some examples of ways volunteers can assist with patients are reading, writing letters, playing music or games, sitting quietly, listening, spiritual support and much more.

, Volunteers Make a Difference!!

If you have a passion for caring for others and are looking for a way to make a difference in people's lives, consider becoming a hospice volunteer. Our volunteers are an important part of our hospice care team, helping to improve the quality of life for our patients, their families and their caregivers.

We are looking for great volunteers who are able to work remotely, by making 'Tuck In' calls. These calls can be done from the comfort of your home, on your schedule. These calls are a touch base with our patients or their families to check in and ensure they have all needed supplies and support. These calls are so important to maintain the connection with our patients and families. Please consider helping in this capacity!
