Community Hospice to offer volunteer orientation
Published 8:56 am Friday, October 18, 2019
ASHLAND Ky. — Community Hospice has scheduled an evening Volunteer Orientation training. The two-day session will be Tuesday and Wednesday from 5:30-8:30 p.m. on Nov. 5-6. The sessions will be held at the Community Hospice Care Center located at 2330 Pollard Road, Ashland.
Although volunteers are needed for a variety of duties, there is a particular need for those interested in providing short in-home caregiver breaks, emotional support and companionship visitation, nursing home visits, those with chaplain experience, and at the Care Center as a greeter/receptionist or working with the hospitality cart. Volunteers determine when and how often they are available to assist — a few hours a week or just occasionally. All volunteers must complete the required training to be certified.
If you are interested in becoming a Hospice volunteer or to reserve your space, contact Andrea Arnett, Director of Volunteers, at 606-329-1890 or 800-926-6184.
