Volunteer Training
Special Hospice Volunteer Training is required in order
to work directly with Hospice clients. We have several levels of training
available:
Hospice Volunteer Training
focuses mainly on care and companionship of palliative care clients
& listening skills. Sessions involve
two full Saturdays, and 6 evenings or afternoons.
Bereavement Volunteer Training
for those who have completed Hospice Volunteer Training, and have some
experience working with hospice clients. Stronger focus on understanding
and care of the bereaved. Sessions run for 6 weeks, and is usually held once
a year.
Group Leadership
for those who have completed previous hospice training and have an interest
in co-facilitating hospice support groups. Runs 4 sessions, and is scheduled
as needed.
Emergency
- a special orientation for trained volunteers who
are interested in working on our emergency team.
