Spectrum Hospice seeks volunteers for varied duties |
|
Longmeadow Spectrum Hospice, a program of Jewish Geriatric Services, is seeking adult volunteers to provide companionship and a comforting presence by listening to the patient's life story, talking, going outside, reading, listening to music, playing cards or engaging in a patient's hobby. Hospice volunteers are also needed to help with administrative duties in the office.
Volunteers will be selected for a one-year commitment and are asked to complete a training program and contribute a minimum of four hours a month.
Spectrum provides comprehensive training, ongoing support and additional training as needed. For more information, call Anne Most at 565-2500.
Spectrum Home Health and Hospice Care has been offering hospice services in Hampden County for three years, is certified by the Joint Commission and has received the American Health Care Association (AHCA) and the National Center for Assisted Living (NCAL) Step II Award for Quality Achievement. It is part of Jewish Geriatric Services (JGS).
