Patient/Family Volunteers – Patient/Family Volunteers work directly with the patients and families providing friendly visits, companionship and caregiver support.  The visit schedule is flexible and depends upon the volunteer and patient availability.  The Patient/Family Volunteer must be 18 years or older, and requires 20 hours of instruction, a TB test, and a background check. 

Tuck-In Volunteers – Tuck-In Volunteers call 4-5 patient/families as needed (daily, weekly) to check in on their progress, order supplies and give a sense of support to lone caregivers and families needing that extra assistance.  There are no patient visits, all contact is by phone.   You are required to e-mail your reports to the team leader and volunteer coordinator. The Tuck-In Volunteer must be 18 years or older, and requires 20 hours of instruction and a background check. 

Compassionate Companions – Compassionate Companions extend caring concern to the patients by providing a reassuring presence at the bedside of a dying patient who would otherwise be alone. The Compassionate Companion Volunteer must be 18 years or older, and requires 20 hours of instruction, a TB test, and a background check.
