What does a Bereavement Volunteer do?
Bereavement Volunteers play a significant role in the bereavement process for our families by managing administrative tasks and projects for the recently bereaved. Other tasks include making phone calls to families and assisting with our biannual memorial service.
What if I don’t have any experience?
Luminary Hospice provides exceptional training for its volunteers. Hospice volunteers receive the same orientation as paid staff in addition to their volunteer-specific training. Our training covers hospice history and basics, as well as special considerations surrounding grief, ethics, and bereavement. You only need to bring an open heart and a willingness to serve others, and we will train you.
Why volunteer with us?
Luminary is doing hospice differently. Our interdisciplinary team is comprised of professionals who are genuinely passionate about hospice care. We depend on our volunteers to complement the exceptional service that we offer our patients. Volunteers help us provide end of life care that far exceeds hospice standards and our patients’ and family’s expectations.
Join our team of amazing volunteers!
Hospice volunteers provide their availability to the Luminary Hospice Volunteer Coordinator, schedule time(s) convenient for them, and spend as much time as they choose with a patient.
Volunteer orientations are offered each month. Call or email for more information or to register for an upcoming orientation.
