🌟 Direct Care Volunteers Needed

Spend face-to-face time with patients—wherever they call home: a private residence, facility, or boarding home.

While you will not assist with physical care (feeding, bathing, toileting, walking, or moving patients), your presence and kindness offer powerful comfort.

Patients enjoy:

• Simple conversation and friendly visits
• Reading together
• Playing cards or listening to music
• Quiet companionship
