Care Dimensions invites Bedford residents to sign up for its next online hospice volunteer training classes. Applications will be accepted until May 24.
Options for volunteering with patients include:
- Engaging in a shared interest or hobby
- Helping with letter-writing or life review
- Visiting with your approved dog
- Reading to the patient
- Listening and by providing a supportive, comforting presence
If patient visits are not the right fit, you can volunteer in other ways, such as providing administrative office support or making check-in phone calls to current patients or bereaved family members.
Training will be held via Zoom from 9 to 11 a.m. on Mondays and Wednesdays from June 3 through 26 (register by May 24).
For more information or to register, please go to www.CareDimensions.org/Volunteers, or email [email protected].
