Scripps Hospice Volunteer Information Presentation

Our volunteers fulfill a variety of roles that include:

• Providing caregiver relief, which could include running errands, such as picking up groceries or walking a dog, or helping with other tasks, as appropriate
• Specialty volunteer roles include sewing keepsake bears, haircutting from licensed cosmetologists, pet therapy with certified therapy dogs, and energy therapy by qualified Reiki practitioners

Volunteer requirements

• Must be 18 or older
• Be able to dedicate four hours a week to hospice care
• Commit to at least one year of service
