Community visitor/friends at Hospice Kaipara
At HospiceKaipara, we need people who will provide our patients and their families with support. This could include offering regular companionship with a visit to a patient. Maybe also sitting with patients to give caregivers a break, and perhaps outings and other help as it becomes apparent.
Regular visits can make a real difference to a patients well-being, and our volunteers tell us that they really enjoy and benefit from, their role. Please get in touch if you have an hour or so a week to spare.
TrainingFull training and induction is given so that community volunteers understand the Hospice way.
