Hospice volunteers are an integral part of the hospice team. They provide a caring presence, companionship and respite. Hospice volunteers may be utilized in many ways, including supportive listening, assisting with social activities, providing supportive services such as shopping and transportation, and assistance in the bereavement process. Respite care is an important volunteer function, allowing family members to take time for themselves. Volunteer coordinators work closely with families and patients to match their specific needs with volunteer services. St. Cloud Hospital Hospice Program provides services to patients and families living within a 45-mile radius of St. Cloud, MN. More information: http://www.volgistics.com/ex/portal.dll/OD?FROM=4363
