Hospice volunteering is an intensely gratifying experience. Your time spent with MISSION HOSPICE will directly impact countless patients by providing friendly companionship for the last days of their lives. You will be part of a team that relies on you to be a great communicator and dedicated to patient care.
Although our office is located in South Pasadena, our patients reside all over Los Angeles County and beyond. You will be assigned to one patient and family at a time, usually at a convenient distance from your home, and you will support that patient and family through the duration of the dying process. All of the patients we care for have a life expectancy of six months or less.
We offer a specialized group training program several times per year to prepare you for, and help you get the most out of your volunteer experience. Our next training program begins in September so please call today to reserve your place.
