Are you looking for a way to make an impact and a BIG difference in someone’s life?  Do you like to work with people, perhaps offer comfort and a smile to someone who is ill?  Then, Jansen Hospice may be the answer. Volunteers are a crucial part of our team.

 Patient Care Volunteers offer support and companionship - by being a friendly face and visitor. They also help with shopping or transportation, assist with correspondence, and/or provide respite for the primary caregiver.

 11^th Hour Volunteers stay with actively dying patients during their last hours, and provide emotional support to both patients and family members.  

 Pet Therapy Volunteers - who have a dog or other pet (cat, bunny, horse, etc.) -undergo special training so that their pet can accompany them on visits to patients and their family.

Anyone interested in becoming a volunteer must first schedule an interview appointment.  Once accepted, you will be involved in a special 2 hour weekly training session.  Training begins March 13 and meets on consecutive Tuesday afternoons for seven weeks.    

Appointments are being taken now for February interviews.  Space is limited. 

Jansen Hospice provides hospice services to communities throughout Westchester County.
